Windows 10: Random BSOD after Using MS Verifier

Just doing some random driver verifier testing. Out of no where, when I disable all unknown verified drivers, I get into a BSOD loop. My gut is telling me maybe its the bstkdv_msi5.sys as 24h2 has had issues with virtualization. But I honestly dont know. When I recently installed Bluestacks 5 android emulator W11 24H2 blue screened on me during the install. Out of sheer principle I uninstalled right after. I went back to the one I had been using MSI Emulator whats weird is its core and back end was built on Bluestacks.. So its like???? Anyways, I havent found an exact culprit but here's a sc

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.

No BSODs yet but I haven't been playing World of Warcraft which I suspect to be a possible cause.

Was the driver verifier step necessary or just a suggestion?
