Windows 10: AV causing BSOD?

Someone told me Kaspersky AV is risky for bsod's: is this true?
Would Norton (security deluxe) be better for that problem?

5800 FW Update gets stuck?!?

This is a problem often caused by conflicts in the firewall and AV apps of your PC. Some AVs even cause problems even if turned off (like BitDefender), and require a specific process for making the NSU or Ovi work with it. Check your AV manual on how to
add a program to the "allowed full access" list of your AV.

 

Offline installer?

What is your AV? Sometimes AVs and firewall programs cause all kinds of problems with updating phone software. You have to like, maybe whitelist Ovi Suite, or make the AV manage it in game mode or some such.

 

All antivirus products use drivers.
Drivers can become corrupted over time.
Some drivers may have compatibility / incompatibility issues in different computer environments.
Some drivers can be involved in other driver crashes and not be the root cause.
We have fixed BSOD related to: Norton, Symantec, Kaspersky, Bitdefender, Avast, AVG, ESET, Avira, Comodo, F-Secure, Malwarebytes, Mcafee, Panda, Superantispyware, TrendMicro, etc.

To check for BSOD run this beta log collector and post a zip into this thread:
Use extract > open
log collector v2-beta08.zip
If the beta log collector does not work then use the DM log collector:
BSOD - Posting Instructions - Windows 10 Forums

 

To add to zbook's post, the following AV's are onces I have rarely seen in BSOD's in years.

• Kaspersky
• Bitdefender
• F-Secure
• Malwarebytes
• Panda
• ESET
• Comodo

The following are the most common in my experience

• Norton / Symantec
• Avast
