Windows 10: Windows 10 Pro BSOD

Hello,
I just started getting the BSOD last night. I was working on my laptop, as usual, and all of a sudden, the system froze. No other option than to hard reboot. When it came back, as per my usual habit, I started Task Manager (performance tab). I got another BSOD in less than 2 seconds. It repeated on the next attempts as well. On the third attempt, I did not start Task Manager right away, and it stayed up. I started task manager after about 5 minutes and it crashed again. Then, I went to sleep.

Today, I retried the above steps and it happened again. Then, tried the sfc /scannow and dism commands, but it did not help. But then, I restarted task manager but did not click on the performance tab. The laptop has been up for about 45 minutes now.

I have collected the V12 logs (attached here). I have not collected the DM logs yet. Should I?

Also, while composing this post, found this: Blue Screen of the day—update crashes Windows 10 PCs on print | Ars Technica

I found that KB50000802 was installed last night by Microsoft. I have now uninstalled it (but the attached logs are before this uninstall).

Windows version number: 2004 (OS Build 19041.867)

Please help.
Thanks.
Ajay

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
