It seems to be crowdstrike reacting to the new update.

We have got ours up by the very manual process of:

1 Boot into safe mode.

  1. Navigate to C:\windows\system32\drivers\crowdstrike

  2. Delete C-00000291*.sys

  3. Reboot normally

I guess if the code acted as if it got a valid response without checking it could get into a very weird state. Or the code just fails hard.

At the driver level it's very easy to kill things.
