    Windows Update Caused Blue Screen Of Death


    After updating my Acer laptop for the most resent update it took me to the "blue screen of death". I looked around but there is no optional reset. I went through all 6 options in advanced settings I had. (these were my only options)

    •Startup rest couldn't find an issue and it just told me to turn off my computer returning me to the Blue Screen

    •I went through System Restore and Command Prompt. I don't have any backup files or anything so it just brought be back to the Blue Screen.

    •The Uninstall Updates option told me that it ran into a problem and can't uninstall. Then it takes me back to the blue screen.

    •The last two options are UEFI Firmware Settings and System Image Recovery but I don't think either would fix the issue.

    Again there is not RESET or HARD RESET option in my Troubleshoot Options. It takes me right to the Advanced Options.

    :)
