Many Windows 10 machines blue screening, stuck at recovery
Wondering if anyone else is seeing this. We've suddenly had 20-40 machines across our network bluescreen almost simultaneously.

Edited to add it looks as though the issue is with Crowdstrike, screenconnect or both. My policy is set to the default N - 1 7.15.18513.0 which is the version installed on the machine I am typing this from, so either this version isn't the one causing issues, or it's only affecting some machines.
