Below, we have discussed the different troubleshooting methods in case of this error. Proceed with the one that suits your situation the best.
1. Uninstall the Recent Updates
The problem at hand is typically caused due to faulty or buggy updates installed on the system. An easy solution, if this scenario is applicable, is to uninstall these updates. In this method, we will boot into the Recovery environment of Windows to uninstall these updates. Here is what you need to do:
2. Boot Into Safe Mode Via Recovery Menu
Since the following BSOD error prevents you from booting into the system, you need to use the recovery menu to launch the Safe Mode. By doing so, you will be able to implement the troubleshooting methods that we have discussed later in this guide. Safe mode in Windows is a diagnostic mode. It starts Windows in a basic state, with only a limited set of files and drivers installed. It is likely that the problem won’t occur in safe mode if the default settings and basic device drivers aren’t causing it. Here is how you can boot into Safe Mode:
3. Run System Scans
Corruption errors, and viruses within the protected system files can also lead to issues like this. File corruption is most commonly resolved by removing the infected components, but doing that manually is not recommended when it comes to system-related files. Once you are in Safe Mode, it is best to run the System File Checker, which is a utility designed to fix this issue. The program scans the system for problematic files, and if any are found, it will replace them with their healthy counterparts without causing any harm to the system. You can run this utility using the Command Prompt. We will also be running the DISM utility with it, which repairs a corrupt system image. Here is how you can run an SFC and DISM scans on Windows: Hopefully, you will not face the problem again after restarting.
4. Run a CHKDSK Scan
You can also run a CHKDSK scan, which checks the drives for errors and fixes any issues that are identified. If the issue is being caused due to a corrupt drive, then this should fix it. Here is how you can run the CHKDSK scan:
5. Restore the System to a Previous Point
The Windows operating system takes snapshots of the system state from time to time and refers to them as restore points. You can use these restore points to revert to a certain point in time if anything goes wrong with the system in the future. In this method, we will be going back to a system state where the BSOD was not present. Here is all that you need to do:
