The day Windows actually died

This definitely shows how very incompetent tech companies have become over the past decade. They don't care about customers and what they want anymore these days. It has been more at pleasing shareholders than anything else.

The SaaS (Software as a Service) business model that tech companies have been pushing hard for the past decade is flawed. It means no real user control over their products. Instead, they update the product for you automatically, which we all know leads to a lot of the buggy Microsoft Windows updates that we seem to get every month.

These tech companies really need to re-evaluate their software testing practices, especially after this entire mess.

The tech industry is becoming a laughing stock by each passing year.

I remember we were driving home and the radio suddenly cut out. LMAO

y2k really held that in for 24 years 💀💀

- "Poorly tested"
- An entire file of just zeroes
That sounds like an understatement

LMFAO perfect choice of picture at 03:50 -- thank you for the brief mention 🙏 Crazy to see all this unfold!!

The new intern at work:

In my city, a lot of flights were cancelled because of this. It's insane how a company as big as Crowdstrike doesn't do their testing properly.

My dad (who works in programming) calls CrowdStrike "ClownStrike" or "CrowdShite"

ngl, i never trusted kernel level drivers that would protect you from viruses or malware. i understand it has to be done for big corporations, but i always feel like something bad like this could always happen due to human error or an accident

this caused the traffic lights in my whole town to stop working entirely

"Hey, Mr. Freeman. I had a bunch of messages for you, but we had a system crash about twenty minutes ago and I'm still trying to find my files. Just one of those days I guess."

Lol yeah I finally experience something like Y2K

2000: prediction of technolgy malfunction
2012: false prediction of the end of the world
2024: an actual malfuction

💀

In the UK, CBBC was off-air for more than 2 hours. In the US, several channels including Nick Jr., Nicktoons and TeenNick were off-air at the same time.

This is an optional software issue, NOT a windows issue. plus it isn't a clock buffer overflow issue

Temple OS not affected again, huh?

1:50 LMAO THIS DRAWING IS EPIC

I remember my mom was all afraid of her computer getting screwed up because of Y2K. I risked it with her machine and set the date ahead early on.

I have NOT seen this anywhere here in the UK, but it's crazy it happened anyway.

THATS WHY I SAW A RECOVERY SCREEN ON MY HOSPITALS TVS BRUH IM CRACKING RIGHT NOW

“The intern pushing to the master branch” 🔥

Bro came back and cooked a 5 star meal

having kernel level software with BUGS is just incredibly stupid and i dont know why they allow issues like this to be created.

After watching this video, I feel bad for IT professionals, Knowing they can boot in Windows Safe Mode and delete the files that's causing a bootloop.

The fact that Croudstrike, the company that was supposed to prevent Kernel-Level Attacks from happening, did the oopsies themselves. 🤭

My dads UNT computer has this problem. Because of the fact that UNT has so much locks, I couldn’t remove it

The entire economy hinges on one Indian pushing slop code at 4am

I feel so relieved since I just left for vacation a few days prior, and all of the kiosks/computers run Windows. It would have been a nightmare, but at the same time extremely funny.

Y2K waited for the perfect time lol

Don't for a moment think that Microsoft isn't culpable here. CrowdSrike pulled the the trigger, but MS gave them the gun.
1. Linux being open source means writing and testing drivers is much easier and people are more likely to help you test them on their systems because of that
2. Its standard practice in enterprise linux systems to snapshot the kernel and drivers (what linux calls modules) when a new one is installed, and the previous ones can be selected from the bootloader, before linux even starts. This simple feature that linux ecosystem has had since before I even started using it would have made recovery trivial, if tedious. Windows is its own bootloader, meaning even if this was an option, this would have hosed it anyways.
3. By being a gaping wound, security-wise, this sort of software is mandatory on any Windows system to begin with.

Windows is not an operating system that can be relied on for mission-critical systems, and every business and government organization that did so should not be in any way surprised.

i did not expect to see that danooct1 tweet, thats golden

"Cloud computing is the future", they said...

I mean, technically Windows' design can be blamed for it, like they could have better roll-back measures or stuff, specially for businesses, but, yeah it's definitely not a microsoft outage. The fact that Crowdstrike doesn't have something like a scaling release it's not a good idea. That's what happened to Cloudflare once with their regex rule. You can't just push to everywhere at once. It's a bad idea.

Full disk sounds ENTIRELY believable from my time in consulting. The amount of big companies, recognizable names, where someone does something like turn on debug in prod logging and just never turns it off... and the fix they pushed works, so they never have to check the logs... they're a big company, so of course they allocated plenty of space... my mind palace shows me a printer in a sub-basement connected to an ink tank and an armory of paper, whirring away till the foundation starts to buckle

Crowdstrike striked the crowd.

crowdstrike and them not testing stuff

Everyone is YIIKING OUT of this situation.

2:35 I love how this random replier says "full of zeroes at least" as if that's not literally the definition of "all of it was null"

R.I.P Windows 8-11

This is where the companies with competent IT departments just go around with a handful of flash drives with a light Linux distribution, the patch and a single .sh file on it

0:27 A guy walking with a blue t-shirt. Irony

Unrelated but Enderman is peak artist

I remember having someone be confused by this and telling them to boot into the windows, recovery environment and roll back the updates lol I guess that’s what they did in the IT department

I didn't even notice the outage as my dad's computer was sleeping (so not pulling updates), almost all servers run Linux or some BSD and my personal computer also runs Linux. I only heard of it through YouTubers suddenly talking about a big Window$ outage.

it was crowdstrike though with a driver i think

edit: they said it in the video im dumb

I finally fully understand why it happened, so much thanks!

This isn't even the first time they broke systems, apparently in April/May/June they caused kernel panics on Linux with (again) a faulty kernel mode driver.
Difference is, you can basically sandbox the driver on Linux, which reduces the chance of a crash/panic. Can't really do that on Windows...

I didnt even notice it. I was at home playing minecraft

Crazy
Also the fact that this just happened out of the blue is scary to think about. What happened to not putting all of the eggs in a basket?

I was affected by this today, I am going to vacation to another country but the flight was sadly cancelled, so the airline gave us hotel and some money for food (it was 11pm, almost midnight), then i did go to my hotel but no one could access the rooms that the airline has given to us because the system of the hotel was down, I had to sleep inside the airport, after that the flight was rescheduled and I just arrived to my destination, at first I thought something was bad with the plane, and when I opened YouTube it really was just a windows bug, like what are the chances of flying and at the same time an app update just crashes all airports

yeah 7 flights were cancelled because almost all the screens went on bsod or just completely stopped working

(my windows 11 laptop wasn't affected)

The problem is the vast majority are also bit locked and need a 25 digit key to unlock before you can fix it … one by one

Stores were also affected. I got a few pictures of the blue screens

As a Vietnamese, I can say that we're lucky this time. We didn't really have major issues happened in the enterprises. Some of them were affected though, like Vietjet Air and ACV (Airports Corp. of Vietnam, which operates all airports in Vietnam), but until this time, ACV has came back to operation.

Tbf, many of our enterprises don't auto-update their computers at all, and they do have backup system too. They may not even use Azure as the primary cloud service, Cloudflare or domestic ones are used instead.

Update: Vietjet Air's system has also worked again in that same date.

Imagine someday a bug so severe that it actually takes down the entire internet with no way of repairing it...

End of the world?

Not the first time I've heard of something like this. Some time ago one retailer I know of had an issue with a dodgy third party update causing bootloops on kiosks.

The solution involved giving employees the admin credentials to manually remove the update.

Funnily enough the moment all of this happened, my pc also started acting weirdly, mainly freezing constantly, showing me a black screen everytime i boot it up, and randomly restarting to install an update, and the thing is i left it on the whole night updating and it still told me that the update failed, i tried updating it today but still nothing changed, idk if its an issue with microsoft because i dont use crowdtrike at all

It is absolutely hilarious that no one in the company tested software that billions of computers would use. The odds of this happening in open-source software would be much, much lower. Also, CrowdStrike should be shamed for not knowing to use a VM.

Endermanch: Hacking windows into crowdstrike

4:27 ohhhh i get that now :)

I hate forced auto updates. Hopefully everyone will agree to stop doing them ever again

In the case of Y2K, the chipsets were reconfigured by a batch basic program, after which the code of the boot table was changed and thus the keys were not suitable for loading anything.
although the keys can be rewritten from BIOS or under DOS.

When I was first told about this, I thought this was EVERY windows machine, including consumers and others. That would've been a nightmare if that was the cause.

so that’s why coles at the mall that coles was next to Kmart bugged out

yeah the person that did this got fired after

The fault with Windows here is its ability to give out unregulated backdoors to organisations. Nothing is cosigned by microsoft, the user, or other users before the changes are made to the PC. There are no eyes watching anything proprietary. That is what makes closed source dangerous.

while it is not windows' fault it still shows that windows is designed quite poorly in this regard, as it wouldn't be that wild to expect that a kernel driver can fail on boot. microsoft could have implemented a tool that can automatically reinstall kernel/disable broken module or simply do what modern linux distros do and keep a previous version of kernel (and all its drivers etc) as a backup and load it instead in case something breaks

also it is kinda wild that one company that most people didn't even know about can have so much influence

Love how the Crowdstrike logo is in full on the Mercedes F1 Team's t-shirt while they have a BSOD

not even f1 was safe lmfao

Bruh, I was on a drive with my family to Canberra and never knew about this until that night when the late night news was on talking about it (I was in a grocery store and saw the self service machines in a BSOD loop but thought the machines themselves were acting up lmao)

I'm sorry..... Enderman... It was me! 😅

It is a problem with Windows’ system architecture in the way that this should never have been possible

Falcon runs in user mode on macOS (Apple restricts kernel mode kexts), and can run under eBPF on Linux.
Microsoft should take some of the blame for failing to address the issue of kernel mode drivers.

“Antivirus” already told me that this is partly caused by Windows not being secure enough to not require antivirus.

Day 43 of asking windows 7 no csm guide

1:42 tbh no. The company can simply use an internal IT team and have them make those user accounts that are basically linked to the server, or something. Just they've did for about 15 years before people thought that centralising everything was a good idea.

I saw this is in the news and I’m like, damn, bill gates is in the sh*t lol

Imagine if this happened in the year 3000, Neuralinks would cause a zombie apocalypse.

HOLY NEW VIDEO🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

My dad who works at nationwide actually had this happen to him, he had this happen a day before he got important information, how fun

Would Microsoft be liable for anything? Just wondering

Linux and mac machines that had crowdstrike didn't crash, windows therefore shares the blame.

chatgpt and their windows 7 keys huh?

The outage could have airports, stores, and all of them to be cancelled due to the problems.

Few weeks back my pc crashed. After that I could not connect to wifi. After partially fixing it I wanted to reinstall my pc for full fix but when the instalation completed, my pc just crashed again and again saying that critical system died. Not even safe boot worked so I had to do clean reinstalation. I also tried using command prompt but it was probably affected too. Idk if the similiar thing happened now or not. I did not manage to get even error code.

Either similiar thing happened to me or I am just completly dumb and stupid.

The fact that this happened is actually crazy.Considering considering that you know we as the windows community have had a long history

NO WAY THE FIRST TIME IVE EVER GOTTEN TO A VIDEO IN 1-2 MINS

You know it's serious when Enderman comes back

Linux time

another thing is bc of curfew on my country, our nation didnt even have and internet aacess at all, acess was given sometimes and now (July 24) is given fully acesss, so nothing happened with us and the companies which work on internet was all closed.

People that say sWiTcH tO lInUx are most likely npcs, because faulty code from a company don't mean that windows 10/11 is bad

Me who can still use my win 11 pc : (like 2k22 or 2k23, i try to update says i can but just wont. Glad

Crowdstrike really went “falcon punch”

This is why I would recommend businesses to get Linux. It's free, there are hundreds of distros that act just like Windows (Wubuntu for example), and it is more secure due to the GNU kernel having built in antivirus capabilities. Has anyone noticed a pattern?
>Microsoft releases Windows 11
>Car dealerships experience outages
>The entire world experiences outages

Note--Even though I absoultely, positively, HATE Windows with a passion, I hate when the news and lamestream media says "Microsoft Outage" when it actually was Crowdstrike's dumb update that affected Windows computers, which can't handle it. I agree with Noah Evans. 0:51

If AI ever takes over the world just release a new CrowdStrike update

I got hired my a store to go and fix all the self checkout machines that were running windows. It was a very funny sight to see and alot of money for a 30 minute job

u can add a driver, make it start on the boot and make it system with Process Hacker 2

Windows really need some sort of snapshot capability for these sort of silly situations, ReFS should have that i guess, but it's still not mainstream for some reason.

It only goes to Windows PC’s that have CrowdStrike, but I don’t have CrowdStrike so I’m not affected

im a fan of shaun's theory, it feels the most likely to me. a file that exists but doesnt actually have any data feels like an error of a file system or hardware, and i'd like to hope they test their new updates at least on ONE computer before they send them out...
but that doesn't excuse deploying an update globally without at least testing some canaries first. but i dont work in tech (yet)
if a malicious actor corrupted the file intentionally, to me it feels like either petty revenge than a truly malicious threat actor. if i had access to the files that are updated and sent out globally, id install a back door instead of loudly alerting my presence by crashing every system its deployed on.

they really lived up to their name, and striked crowds 💀

fr that error was happened in Czech republic too

Fun fact apparently it got so bad it took the entirety of Australia’s economy done beochase they went all digital and Starbucks order ahead

I've seen the same thing on Discord via Infinity Aviations server. The same thing, dont blame microsoft, blame crowdstrike. How it was like yesterday blows my mind.

Y2K finally happened.

bro just realesed a movie named
y2k second edetion
a tragedy that no one see coming

I got to work this morning and my co-worker's computer was bluescreening and he thought he broke it until I looked up the stop code and saw all the news articles lol

One must imagine if Disney was outaged by Crowdstrike

And this is why I don't like kernel-level anticheat lol
But seriously, this is craaazy~ mistakes are bound to happen, but when so many people rely on a single, centralized, proprietary junk of code, yeah this is the equivalent of a digital nuke going off lol

bro take "never let them know your next move" to a next level☠💀☠

I mean, the faulty driver got through WHQL and was pushed out using Windows Update, so * technically * Microsoft is partly accountable /s

My father reconfigured the computers of a Coca-Cola factory during the 90s to support the 2000s. We gotta thank our heroes

Funny how on the 19th I fixed my PC's battery problem.
This outage actually made me go insane

NWPA Impacts from what I heard

Erie County (Erie) - Government offices were shut off but Emergency Services were fully functional
Crawford County (Meadville) - Government Paychecks were delayed for some people
Warren County (Warren) - No real noticeable impacts

Also one of the news anchor from the area had to take a rental car from Milwaukee because his flight was canceled

(For a regional impact it could had been a lot worse especially up in Erie County the saving grace was the fact that EMS functions are on another server)

Always thought the brand-name 'CrowdStrike' had unfortunate possibilities. Bet they rename to something more beige and neutral in next couple of months...

0:32 Computer getting shitdwon by their own sponsor
Such a Mercedes thing

"billions must reboot" had me dying 🤣

Calm down Y2K You're in a hurry

Glad that didn’t occurred to home users like us! (That also happened to me back in mid 2021)

I was driving my taxi and all that happened is the doors locked so i had to spend 24 hours in my car and the next day it worked again LOL

4:18, Guys its under control why you all worry about trivial things

Y2K really said “Never let ‘em know your next move.”

Literally the day before this happend, my 2 year old windows hp computer died. The motherboard just died. I lost many diff3rent files.

y2k finally pooped after 24 years and didn't reach my computer

This will be a great Kevin fang video soon.

The Year 2038 bug will be an interesting one as well...

So it was just delayed?
Y2K: I've been delayed, I've been delayed, I've been delayed





Club Penguin refrence

turns out the guy who pushed the code was a "slight" code optimization and he got fired

Funniest part, in my country only the airport had some issues and that's all.

imagine paying for ur groceries and then the machine bluescreens 💀💀💀

~"but crowdstrike put a flaw inside
lots of users might have cried
the day that windows died."

CrowdStrike:Global Outages

No wonder why in the hotel the A/Cs turned off randomly.

Were any sites taken offline? I know some servers may have this installed which may cause the servers to crash.

my friend is stuck in italy for 2 more days now, but he said he is staying in a nice safe city and everything should be fine.

Y2K really wanted a twin that would actually happen 💀💀💀

I just might be the only person to not have noticed it all crashed.

"The day, the musiccccccccccc dieeeeeeeeeeeed.. *instrument playing*" - song idk whats the name or its smth else

this whole time Y2K is just a distraction💀

I like this new type-of-style of enderman videos :D

You know that things have really gone wrong when even Enderman makes a video about it.

3:58
NOOOOO DAN!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭

4:21 yes, it is under ctrl

Even my PC was Fine for the Patch. You must update your PC to stop crashing.

now gen alpha has their own y2k💀

I actually broke out laughing for no reason XD

We got massive windows os crash worldwide before GTA VI

When i got it, it made a perfectly cut scream when i was watching something

Windows 10 users : Why didn't it give me an error?

imagine gen beta listening to their fathers and grandfather and they told a similiar story💀

That was unexpected for sure

1:30 IDC Is also at failure here... it's just failure all around.

My PC did not get this Recovery window. It booted into Windows without errors.

One time in the bus i saw TV2 (Danish channel) i live in denmark but not danish! and then there's a technical outage for Windows 10!

I saw at least 3 BSODS at a hardware store in my area. My assumption was a server issue.

just as i was looking up this

0:46 Woolworths!?!?!? (Australian grocery store) Is that you!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Yeah i Understand That Happened in Yesterday But Thank God When My Gaming Laptop and My Other Computers With Windows 10 Survived in My Country, And Also My My Mom and Dad Saw This on News btw

Is everyone PERSONAL computer also BSODed? My bsoded on every boot, so i reinstalled windows.

what a great birthday present, a global computer crisis 🥳

That Windows Outage is Surprising

No wonder my dad's call computer just died💀
It is a huge problem because my dad helps maintain one of the bigger network providers in canada

0:28 Tied to crab-strike

even the Mercedes-AMG F1 team was affected 💀

Me running Linux: u can't touch this (nah nah nah nah, nah nah, nah nah) can't touch this

It was Microsoft’s fault, they sent out a Windows update that destroyed all of those computers

Wow. I learned WAY more from a 5 minute video than from the official news video that was 10 minutes long.

unrelated but do you guys like the hit game 'Portal' made by huge company Valve, which made the insanely popular game service 'Steam'?

the supermarket blue screen was where i live lol

So Windows will just choose not to boot and caused all of this outage because of 1 single stupid driver that was broken and couldn't load? WTF

Thank you Enderman, my right ear really enjoyed this video.

Me still being scared to open my laptop....

billions must reboot

"Back then, like around July of '24, my Mom was working at the hospital with a research team and then all monitors went blue"

therefore, I was told that all places on Windows except Russia were affected

I found this not too long after waking up and thought, finally, windows is dead, I am severely dissapointed

Crowdstrike definitely fulfilled every malware coders' wettest dream of all time…

It happened to my damn computer as well

My dad experienced this at night and it was insane

This will be the most important reason to switch to Linux.

Got scared shitless when my pc bsoded yesterday while i was reading a article about this.

I’ve seen a windows error screen in Cranbourne park before

Hey! coud you make a Video about DWM and the windows theming topic? we couldnt find that many videos or blogs about it, thanks

The big question: what was the error, and how this file damage all OS in seconds
This need investigation a bit more deep how happen

i don't often test my code but when i do, i do it on production.

And it STILL didn’t end the world like people predicted. 😂

YOOO NEW ENDERMAN VIDEO NO WAY

This is why we should go back to Protegent

july 19th was a normal day, especially north macedonia

Crowdstrike moment right here

That's why you run linux on those public displays

if you turned your pc before 6 am yesterday you got blue screened

Same thing happened to me. It was either Jun 4 or 5. My Windows 11 laptop went into infinite BSODs... I tried to fix it too many times, but it still couldnt work. after an entire month, i everually decided to clean install...

as someone whos windows computer didnt get demolished, nuh uh

Anyone gonna talk about how we got Y2K before GTA 6?

The Return Of Y2K.😱🙀💻🖥️.

Just wait till you find out what happens to 32 bit computers(literally almost every none consumer computer) when January 19th 2038 rolls around

computers were in recovery mode in disneyland too, no photos :(

this is the only time i've seen Endermanch this funny and i think its the first time he does videos this funny. as well that surely fake tweet made of nothing happened that friday.

as an IT employee, i couldn't take a better time to be on vacation

it has nothing to do with windows nowadays, it was crowdstrike's software fault that led to bsods

at least my computer has turn off before this time

Putting one's faith in one choke point without the ability to reload the prior update is just plain stupid.

Y2K held itself by 24 years 💀

I have win 10 pro, my system didn't crashed and worked fine, until i seen that my programmes and games don't work,, new files are completely fine, but old ones are dead now

"Billions must reboot" 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂

My windows lenvo died forver on that day. Thxs crowstrike (middle finnger )

Now. This time switching to linux.

I went to shopping mall today, I saw some ATM screens have a bsod or recovery screen on it. I returned home without depositing money. I almost get my card stuck in atm

title: The day Windows actually died
me: aw dang it i forgot to buy mac

the cash machine took my money but it never got put on my account.

another thing is bc of curfew on my country, our nation didnt even have and internet aacess at all, acess was given sometimes and now (July 24) is given fully acesss, so nothing happened with us and the companies which work on internet was all closed.

idk why but i feel lucky because when it happened i was in a shop scanning the products an suddenly bsod appeared lol

Now this is why you cannot turn on your computer in 19 July!

"... and the governments..." showed the Cathedral of Vasily the Blessed

Ironic how, in order to stop viruses and root-kits, you have to install a root-kit that promises to be part of the good guys.

This is truly a OOOOH MY PC! moment.

fun fact: my last day of internship in the IT department was today...

The driver update was missing the "quality control passed" sticker

Jokes aside, I wonder if crowdstrike EVEN has any testing performed before it just auto updates....

Thanks for the detailed explaination. i was struggling a bit to understand how this was caused.

Windows has been dead for a long time, though...

Yeah, this was not fun to fix at work

this is one of the reasons why I don't really trust kernel-level software

4:27 never thought i would ever see this joke

0:44 this government had no problem like this, cuz in russia noone uses crowdstrike

This should be called Y2K24

Proof Y2K was nothing to be worry about

After all electricity is only recent

Many flights,banks,schools got affected

LOL working as an MSP was certainly fun today😅

welcome back Y2K era 🫡

Bro here in Miami, People are getting hella upset over here in International or Fort lauderdale airports

Fun fact: This is a warning to Apple that the whole population uses windows

It had it coming

It only took 24 and a half years for Y2K to happen...

All because of Security Software by Cloud Strike, well it struck the internet...

I thought I was the only one i was using my school computer when this happened 💀

in australian, it happened here too at coles which is one of our grocery stores and all the pos systems were all on bsod apart from a few self checkouts, had to wait so long just for a chocolate😅

You are wrong if the operating system allows third party programs to enter a Boot loop it's the fault of the operating system. The operating system shouldn't have these kind of problems, and Cyber security software like crowdstrike wouldn't even be necessary if the operating system would do its job correctly.

so that somehow caused enderman to upload

My right ear enjoyed this video very much

This happened to CBBC and Sky News in the UK

y2k really crapped there 💀☠️

ah, so that's what was that "global windows outage" e-mail I had on my corporate inbox.

Maybe my computer being dead last night because i left my charger at work was a blessing in disguise. I dont think i have crowd strike so i should be good.

This saw a windows boot loop at the grocery store ☠

yup, went to hop on a plane today and there were crazy delays due to the outage

Y2K in 2038 ( we got that before gta 7 prob 💀)

0:31 FORMULA 1 MENTIONED YES ENDERMAN YES YES THAT WAS SO RIGHT

linux really had a major W there

Y2K bug is real but in 2024

How did “Crowd Strike ” mess this up? We should blame them instead

I think you should make a video with FULLY installing windows 11 without oobe.

In the UK, my friends cannot leave for their families in other countries

This video style is so cool

endermanch >>>>>>> fireship

My mom works for Microsoft and the whole day she was on the phone, even on vacation. All day and night. Everything was down, and I mean everything. This honestly shows how dependent we are on tech, and even down for a day, can even kill people.

RIP Windows 1985-2024?

i know now why did my PC network malfunctioned

Also, the PH was also affected :(

Keep in mind, it only affected windows, Mac and, Linux still work fine. So, there is still a chance tha Microsoft could be guilty.

I can tell that this video was made really quickly

THIS IS THE YEAR OF LINUX DESKTOP

Had 500 server to fix, good times...

Lol I even didn't noticed the problem. My home computer with W11 is ok and everything else too. Looks like this is because in my country almost everyone using XP/7 or Linux in companies

my right ear enjoyed

did I really just sleep through this entire incident 💀

i just wonder why every computer (as systems at areas) even uses windows.. some of them are just for gui

CrowdStrike Actually Got CrowdStroke 💀

It just reminds me of J’s World Hub banning every single person in the game for about literal glitch.

glad my pc didnt fucking shit itself

Actually the day macOS died PERMANENTLY! (from macOS 10.0 onwards, all versions)

did windows 11 had enough? so he self-destruct himself & windows 10, and everyone is going to switch to linux

3 MINUTES GANG

Crowdstrike Falcon's new update is a failure! My dads workplace actually had this issue, and pretty much everywhere.

田: Bai bai imma shut down all electronic brains for no reason.
People: on no we are lost

Im glad I dont have a full time IT job yet lol. This would be a nightmare

Crowdstrike messed up..

y2k couldn't wait til 2038

Someone really uses windows on servers 💀

I use Arch, btw

when i watch dis im gonna switch to linux

Bruh finally a vid

THAT’S what the xkcd comic was about

Thank you xqc, your voiceover is much improved as well

2:28 i've seen other people saying that for them the offending files weren't filled with zeroes. This might be misinformation

What's next? Chinese spyware kernel level anti cheat (valorant vanguard) that caused similar results?

0:32 they literally have the culprit in their backs lol

Apple gonna have a field day

Next time another YouTuber will talk about the EVIL business of Crowdstrike.

pointing the finger… Doesn't change that it's "windows related"...

Meanwhile me, just using some tool like "Win Update Stop" be like...

😌

Stay healthy and take care bro.😅

that was microsoft updating

So what happend is that a driver script had a miss speld line of code (a driver is a Windows operating File that runs functions in your computer you can see your driver of you open some type of taskmaneger) probably from an Windows update and that did your Windows system to couse a blue screen for dose who dont know what a blue screen is it is when your Windows system detects a issue/problem in your computer that couse a blue screen

What about system restore points tho can it be used in these kind of situations????

Nah bro in spain they said it in the news but nothing happened

i work at a telecommunications company more specifically in a retail store of the company and today we got a text in the stores group chat that the main system of the company was down and a fix was to be announced. when i clocked in for my shift a couple of hours later it seemed to be stable enough but the main portal of the company still has a message that says they're working on a fix. (kinda sad tbh cuz i would've loved to just do nothing all day because of the system being down)

my school computers also suddenly bsod on 17th july 2024

Why didn't it have to be Windows update that would have been so funny

well? i guess LTT did something good with switching completly to linux

Thank God my computer downstairs wasn't affected by this

This morning I went to the supermarket only 2 self checkout machines were working

My Acer Laptop does not have a blue screen so there is no Crowdstrike.

Its because of crowdstrike falcon

the day the music...died

Oh wow I was just 1 year old when that happened and now I’m a freaking 25 now and then this happened again! And IDK how did that happened?

Y2K left the game and came back to it 24 years later 💀

Want to add, although it's not Microsoft's or Windows fault, if they had been using Linux or even Mac it would have been fine, the update didn't affect those operating systems.

sorggy guys , i accidentally put spaghetii into the crowdstrike code

Well there's Year 2038 bug

It’s cuz of the Global outage It Didn’t Had 0 Ppl using it

Who the fuck at Crowdsike's HQ fell asleep on their keyboard, how did that trigger the 0 key and how did no one notice

we got y2k24 before gta 6

i don’t believe it myself, but microsoft not to blame for once XD
These idiots of that “security” software, they have no right messing with the actual kernel. They made a faulty kernel update, something only the os manufacturer (ms) should do. NOT some “security” software company…

WOW NEW VIDEO

this happend to me too i had to lose all my data

F*ck… I just graduated from High School and I know well those computers rely on Falcon Senor by Crowdstrike, especially Apple Computer Products. They were previously monitored by Symantec Endpoint before the reimaging happened, and I can probably tell how much it can be a pain to fix thousands of devices due to a bad update. As of me writing this, I'm worried about my main laptop crashing out of nowhere. But I probably shouldn't be since I don't use third-party antivirus programs.

Have a nice camping

It affected my uncles work(edit i spelled effected wrong lol)

we got y2k 2.0 before gta 6

Welp, another reason to not regret switching to Linux!

I saw this in a medical center

im so glad my dads firm had the no bullshit windows versions (atlas, tiny) installed

Guys it was just a bit late, no worries

I am on macOS, so I am largely unaffected.

Papyrus. Oh so silly.

Bro, in Iran nothing changed because we aren't using the original license of windows 😂 we are blocked by Microsoft

Oh I nearly press update my computer 💀💀

How does a file with only zeros affect anything

This is Y2K24

Ok

I was driving and my car just shut off like literaly

Man... I got to update my subscription....

is this happen to home computer or just business computer

I Called It Y24K.

LOL i legitimately had my computer turned off before midnight that (previous) day so my computer was actually fine!

Supp enderman

my pc still working

windows 10 is a gigachad, my win11>deb>win10 computer didn't bluescreen

Crazy this happened on my birthday

My whole university got shut down today from this, my compsci friends couldn't do their research 😅

Hey can you make a video to how to turn your uefi bios to legacy BIOS in windows 10?

Kaspersky's Vengeful Curse

i have expirienced same issue and now i had to Reinstall OS (Windows 11 Pro) to resolve it

At least I was not affected by this issue, but yea Microsoft Outage caused lots of problems in this world. Either way, if I was affected by the endless BSOD loop because of that I'd be going Linux.

WE ARE RELIVING Y2K WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣

I saw that on Wikipedia

i dont know if i should laugh at this or not but i may have survived this day without a bsod

i disabled updates on windows 10 fortunately so im still here

Oh it effects people, police departments and hospitals are out now. This is horrible. My girl was supposed to guve birth today now the doctors don't know what to do. Smh 😢

Hi Enderman I just wanted to say I love your videos and I'm planning to make a YouTube channel about Windows OS's.

hello enderman!

19 July 2024... Wasn't it supposed to be 19 January 2038? It happened 13 1/2 years early, or 24 1/2 years too late! 😂

me playing msfs during this:

Sure they were windows pcs but this was not a windows issue. These headlines are misleading.

Argentina didn't suffer it cuz the software was too expensive. Haha

its liteary juat the companys saving money on stuff they do not care unless if the people using it complain

bro is fired, bigtime

Honestly i would just fall back to linux

DANOOCT1 MENTIONED?!?! 3:58

no wonder why most of the servers use linux

At least I could still sign into Microsoft anyway it was Microsoft's cloud fault

So i can update my windows 11 laptop rn?

IT'S NOT MICROSOFT FAULT, IT'S CROWDSTIKE FAULT

Average updates in 2024 be like. God, the tech world nowadays is an absolute joke that gets worse every day.

People who is in vacation in July 20th: 📈📈📈💹💹💹💹

Sooo uhmmm.... Are most of the companies using Windows? bruuuhhh...

delete 291.sys in CrowdStrike folder so your PC can run properly

Alright I’m setting my PC so it will BSOD every year on July 19

NEW VIDDDDD

you should make a video exploring the xbox with the new exploit

They dont do the testing properly

OneShot

Let's rollback to Windows 7!

I didn't even notice lol

Так вот зачем на Россию Microsoft ограничения наложила, чтобы защитить от сбоев. У нас сбоев по всей стране не было, в отличии от другого мира.

Lot of the people scared or mad this happend wouldntve even noticed if it wasnt for the wide spread news coverage.
The fact youre able to upload this in the first place is proof this is unlike y2k completely, since that was supposed to break every and all computers. Not just ones running corporate level software.
Stop clickbaiting the tiktokers.

Testing in prod lol

yknow shits aint just shit and is REAL shit instead when even enderman posts about it

That’s Y3K (LMAO)

As long you dont update to the newest update you should be fine

if the computer is bootlooping, how can crowdsstrike fix it? they wouldnt be able to access the desktop, because the computer is bluescreening

the one time im proud to be a linux user

i have an asus laptop and i was installing more than 100 applications to work on my job and then after some months i turned on my computer a blue repair screen apeared with a file BCD then i go to command prompt to rebuild BCD using bootrec then nothing i turned off and on nothing blue screen with recovery screen appeared again and now i have to use my mac to create a mac os bootable usb to install mac on my laptop .

yay the screaming guy is back

absolutely doomly

didnt get crowdstrike'd

I didn`t even notice it

At least I didint update

Hey there is no Manual Verification on your discord!

I wanna get verified manually.

so what is going on guys? y2k coming or i am coming

How much did it last?

This is why I may consider switching to Linux

Told you

pretty sure you made this video in 2 hours max. Like the drawings killed me 😂.

Y2K really lagged 24 years 💀

I sense Linux usage is going to go up because of this...

title kinda misleading to make me think it was microsoft but ok

big corporation try to make good software challenge (impossible):

Ok then no computer then phones are better than computers.

No wonder I installed Ubuntu...

It actually didn't catch in albania

Damn talk about a Blue Screen Of Death

Guys
Just use Linux
But no
I am not going to say that
Yk company’s can’t install Linux on their systems

Didn't Microsoft give them the thumbs up?

This happened to me on my Lenovo laptop and it wont let me restore windows

now gotta wait for y2k38

plot twist it was bbno$

i'm glad that i experienced contemporary y2k 😁

shouldn't windows have a contingency for poor drivers? windows should boot into safe mode sooner.

Linux > Apple baddie ecosystem > windows femboy ecosystem

Im Glad I did not update my Windows 10 and turn off the Computer before the Incident happens! 😅😅😅😅😅

that not windows mistakes that the third party soft error

me who doesnt use crowdstrike- NYNEHAWuHE AHAEHUWA HAw WEUWUEJJEEJAKKW AKhwaAHHA :)

Good thing i barely use my PC

Yea everything went down

Dual boot windows 11 and windows 1.0

I never have y2k with my notebook because I'm still using my windows 7 notebook

Today?

continue making videos with just music and subtitles

SHUt up, Microple!

I think driver speedup pc tool would be a better software

my pc didnt had this issue gladfully lol

In Serbia it didn't happened at all,we maybe dont use crowdstrike xD

it took down a tv channel in my country lmao

I think I would have found out this happened from this video if Mutahar from SomeOrdinaryGamers hadn't talked about it a few hours ago. Not a criticism, just something I decided to say.

nothing happened on 19th of july 2024

y2k happened for real this time

Lol this is a literal attack
Edit:this is so fun to watch from away my cousin was showing the airport i camt stop laughing

my mum told me about this glitch with windows which is sad

how did y2k delayed so badly💀💀

me laughing cuz im in vacation and i have only my phone

Y2K24

Y2K24

Y2K24

W video

y2.024k

danooct1 mentioned.

Nothing happened on July 19th, 2024.

This is why I use Arch btw.

Thop

Y24 happened

L and T shut down in india on 19 july 2024 [yesterday]

Me 5 days before this incident: oh look at this new "crowdstrike" malware program I'm sure it's fine

Today: HA I KNEW THAT WAS IMPORTANT

It's always Fridays...

That's it switches to Linux

All I know is that these last 3 days have been a big moment for annoying Linuxbros

I was waiting for this video!!

we didn’t get y2k we got Y2K24

Is this the right time to install linux?

this is why open source is better

Did

That thing happen to my laptop it says windows didn't boot correctly😢

I disagree. Microsoft does have a share of the fault. Windows should have protections to avoid these situations. The idea that it is impossible is just not acceptable. Yes, drivers in kernel mode can cause crashes, so what? Microsoft should find a way to make situations like this manageable. I can think of a few strategies: forcing driver developers to go through an independent review, or maybe Microsoft itself doing a review similar to Apple's App Store for these cases, or maybe disabling the failing driver if it causes a boot loop crash? So yeah, Crowdstrike made the driver but Microsoft owns the operating system, and conceptually the operating system owns the computer itself.

Why not… Just… Test the update on one PC first..?

teach us how to backport drivers

the real y2k

wut y2k does nothing with crowdstrike

REMEMBER! turn off your computer at 06/012024

Hello

My pc was still fine!

i kinda got hit by it because my explorer didnt start when i logged on, tho after some tweaking, i could get it to load every time

Hi

Hi

Hello!

Thank god I use Windows 7 at work bc the shit drivers for some of the hardware we use don't work on anything newer. What a fantastic day, tho.

clickbait title, you just wanted to cash in on this event

and my pc was freezeing yestrday

Mhm... Taht is the Microsoft big error i hear in radio(polish radio)todey

I've seen so many "just switch to Linux lol they wouldn't have this problem" posts and it's so annoying because even if it creates a backup you still can't restore it remotely

while obviously this collosal fuck up only broke Windows computers it could have happened to Linux as Crowdstrike does support it

W LOL

wtf bro i use windows and everything is ok

Pov you have tiny 11

0:44 Russian government and most Russian corporations are using Linux since sanctions in 2022

Now imagine that a big portion of these affected machines worldwide were using Bitlocker by W11. It essentially escalated into a Wannacry situation, just with the most secure encryption provided by Microsoft lol.
Goes to show how catastrophic being dependant on only one live service could be.

"duck.sys" got me dying😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

For you guys (especially IT admins) that have the CrowdStrike Falcon antivirus installed and would like a permanent fix for Windows boot loop error, here are the steps:
1) On the "Recovery" screen, click on "See advanced repair options".
2) "Troubleshoot" > "Advanced options" > "Startup Settings"
3) Click on "Restart".
4) When the "Startup Settings" screen pops up, hit the '4' key to boot into "Safe Mode".
5) Once in "Safe Mode", press the Windows key + 'R' (Win + R) to open up the "Run" dialogue box.
6) Type in exactly the following: %windir%\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike
Then hit Enter.
7) Once the "File Explorer" app has been opened with this file path, click on the search bar above and type exactly the following "C-00000291*.sys".
8) Click on that file and hit the "Delete" key.
9) Restart the PC.
10) Fingers crossed 🤞
11) The PCs should now start up normally and you can log back in.

Next steps once it's fixed:
1) Stop using CrowdStrike's crap!
2) Look for several alternatives to CrowdStrike Falcon antivirus that are well-suited for businesses, organisations, and institutions.
I'd suggest looking for these alternatives (according to what A.I. gave me):
➡️ Microsoft Defender for Endpoint
➡️ Bitdefender GravityZone
➡️ Sophos Intercept X
➡️ Panda Security Adaptive Defense
➡️ Trend Micro Apex One

Alternatively, switch to Linux!

strange tho my pc didnt got the bsod thingies

The files were full of zeroes. Who invented zero? The ancient Maya. What else resembles a zero and relates to the Yucatan area? That’s right, the Chicxulub impactor.

This incident was orchestrated by time-travelling dinosaurs. Case closed. Illuminati confirmed.

Russian government actually users Linux in all their computers.

Why the h*ll would you think they use windows? You think the Russians are idiots?

ain't no way someone turned an antivirus to a virus 💀

Trial run by CrowdStrike to sabotage the 2024 election in November...

My local government information site (for my state) actually has a large banner as of right now saying"
"Commonwealth services are back online, as are public safety services like 911 dispatch centers.
Thanks to our team and our local partners for your hard work this morning."
Actual 911 dispatch centers in my area were offline because of this. Imagine someone in a life or death situation not being able to call 911 because of CrowdStrike drivers. Imagine someone DYING because of CrowdStrike drivers. I guess Y2K really did happen, just 24 years late. We're lucky this didn't last for long though, or else the effects could've been even more devastating.

Edit: Actually, last night around 11pm I was trying to use MS365 PowerPoint (which is online) and it just wouldn't load. Try after try. This isn't unusual, maybe slightly, since it had an actual error code linked to it, but I think that was kind of the start of this whole thing.
