Microsoft released an official recovery tool to address computers affected by a problematic CrowdStrike update, which caused a massive IT crash and Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) issues. This update, installed remotely, impacted over 8.5 million Windows machines worldwide, affecting airports, hospitals, media organizations, and emergency services.
The manual fix is time-consuming, especially for firms with numerous affected computers, necessitating extensive IT staff overtime. In collaboration with CrowdStrike, Google Cloud Platform, and Amazon Web Services, Microsoft is actively assisting in resolving the situation.
