Blue, or green, or black? Windows 11’s infamous ‘screen of death’ error message is going through some confusing changes
- Microsoft is changing the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) in Windows 11 to a more streamlined 'Black Screen of Death.'
- The redesigned BSOD in Windows 11 is plainer and displays a message that the device needs to restart without the traditional sad face or QR code for error details.
- The new black BSOD may be confusing as it resembles a Windows update screen, potentially leading users to mistake it for a routine update process.
- Some argue that the removal of the frowny face makes the error message less immediately recognizable but also less childish.
- There are concerns that novices might not easily identify the error message on the new black screen and could confuse it with a system update.
- Suggestions for improving the new BSOD include making the error text larger, more readable, and clearer to differentiate it from an update process.
- Microsoft is reportedly testing this new Black Screen of Death on Windows 11, with potential limited rollout to some users.
- Long-term improvements in error messages are desired to provide more helpful information and clues for both technical and novice users when encountering BSOD.
- Overall, while streamlining the BSOD may have its benefits, there are concerns about the effectiveness and clarity of the new black error screen in Windows 11.
