    And that’s the problem, like CrowdStrike Vanguard will update itself in the background unlike your GPU driver which you need to go through an update process explicitly, so if the same thing happens where they pushed a bad update, the same outcome of causing failed boots without prompt could happen.

      Does Vanguard not seek testing and validation by Microsoft before pushing updates?

      I saw the recent video from the Task Manager designer Dave’s Garage on YouTube, lack of thorough official validation seemed to be an important part of the CrowdStrike problem.
