    Driver updates from Windows cause random BSOD crashes


    I installed the urgent security fix 7/7 and saw a list of multiple driver "updates" suggested by Windows Update. I foolishly installed them and now my computer which has been stable for years crashes randomly when in use or just idling on its own. 4 BSOD screens in two days versus zero in two years. How do I get your horrible system to roll back those garbage drivers that have ruined my computer?The troubleshoot is as useless as ever, it doesn't even recognize that the computer has crashed multiple times.

    Random BSOD while browsing internet


    BitDefender is nothing special. mwac.sys causes BSODs anywhere.
    A tiny documentation can be found here: Solved Random BSODs - Windows 10 Forums
    In that very thread, the suggested action apparently worked.

    The storage and network filters of any third party antivirus can cause BSODs. Neither MBAM nor BitDefender is any special. For a regular antivirus, it may be shifted to an alternative; but MBAM has no alternative. So a clean install of the said program is the most feasible first step.
    As far as the first step is not failing, it is better to not think for the second step. Because the BSODs are not universal, failure at the first step is not universal; and success at the second step is also not universal.
    That is why I posted that my suggestion may work, or may not. Let us see where it goes.
