It’s the same screen we all fear, only darker.
The transition from Windows 10 to Windows 11 looks set to remove one of the most recognizable and feared screens from Microsoft’s operating system. The Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) is set to disappear. As The Verge reports, preview builds of Windows 11 have revealed that the BSoD will remain, but the « B » now stands for Black. Although not officially confirmed yet, it’s believed that Microsoft has switched from blue to black so as to match the black backgrounds of the login and shutdown screens in its new OS.
