There is a workaround to fix a machine that does not boot up. I haven't tested this myself since I am not impacted.
- Boot Windows into Safe Mode or Recovery Environment
- Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike directory
- Locate the file matching "C-00000291*.sys", and delete it.
- Boot the host normally.
What would happen to the world if all "card machines" stopped working for 72 hours?
I can see this test run happening next

I read on Reddit some companies have 50K+ machines down. You can't perform this fix remotely. Someone will have to apply the fix to all these machines manually.
It's a 5 minute fix. It's just getting a technician to do it be the biggest issue since many organizations don't have the man power.
