Windows 10: Software Process Died(BSOD Error)

I started my system and noticed one folder is suddenly missing from my hard drive, I have also checked hidden folders but its not present. So I tried to restore my PC to a previous update restoration point, but after sometime my PC restarted and displayed Blue Screen Error "Software Process Died". I checked for sfc and DISM, but that didn't work, DISM is not working. I checked for reseting and uninstalling updates, but that also didn't work. I tried to reinstall my windows by safely keeping my files. But that also didn't work.What should I do now?

BSOD - Critical Process Died

Hi Tony,

The blue screen error with a stop code 'Critical Process Died' that you encountered can be caused by a recent update, device drivers that got corrupted or system files that got corrupted. For us to resolve your concern, kindly answer the questions below:

• What changes were made or what updates were installed prior to the issue occurring?
• Did you mean to say that you ran your device in safe mode when you said that you booted the device with only Microsoft Processes running?
• Which version and build of Windows 10 is installed on your device?

As an initial recommendation, we suggest that you follow the steps on this
link to run the driver verifier. Driver verifier is an inbuilt tool in the Windows operating system, which helps you to test the drivers which may be corrupted. These corrupted drivers may contribute as to why you're getting a "Blue Screen of Death" (BSOD)
or stop errors.

We look forward to your response to our queries.

 

Critical Process Died Error


Recently while using the internet my computer experienced a BSOD which listed the Critical Process Died as the error. Before this happened my computer kept popping up with a message I believe was saying that the display adapter driver crashed and then was recovered. It should also be mentioned that I recently upgraded my system with a new graphics card, after my old one died, and with a new case. That was my first time ever doing something like that, so I wouldn't be surprised if that could be a problem.

 

Critical process died BSoD loop

My alienware 17 R3 laptop apparently forced restart to update windows 10 earlier in the day and after the update finished it literally won't start up and is now stuck in Critical process died BSoD loop without me being able to enter safe mode.

Any attempt to entering safe mode results in another Critical process died blue screen and I've tried EVERYTHING that the net lists as a solution.

Tried going back to previous version of windows and it list an error, tried restoring from a previous point and it doesn't show up at all. Hell I tried a complete reset of the laptop and it gave me an error and said it cannot complete the process for god
knows what reason.

This happened once on my older alienware 17 r3 and I had to get a replacement entirely due to the vendors not being able to decipher the root cause of the problem but one thing is for damn sure, everytime a windows 10 update happens my laptop potentially
gets killed off...

Seriously, any suggestions? This is pretty frigging infuriating.
