Many Microsoft Windows 10 computers are glitching across the world, leaving hundreds of thousands of people impacting. On social media, people are posting photos of their computer screens after their systems have suffered BSOD with the classic blue screen on the display. The glitch has apparently impacted not just people who are currently at work in many offices around the world, but also in critical places like airports where services have been impacted. It has been reported that the glitch is likely a result of an update issued by CrowdStrike. Users on social media have been posting screens showing a Recovery Page with a message on it, which reads “The windows did not load correctly”. Popular airline companies in India, including Akasa Air and Indigo have suffered issues with their check-in systems due to the crowdstrike update, which has reportedly caused the outage. Microsoft is yet to react to the matter.
CrowdStrike has acknowledged the issue in a support note to its customers. The company has said, “We have widespread reports of BSODs on Windows hosts, occurring on multiple sensor versions.” It hasn’t yet specified anything else.
