Microsoft is introducing a new version of the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) in Windows 11, transitioning from blue to a black display. The redesigned screen will offer improved readability and streamline essential information, including error codes and the source of the crash. Set to be rolled out with the Windows 11 24H2 update later this summer, the change aims to enhance troubleshooting for users, reducing downtime after system crashes and aligning better with Windows 11's design ethos.
The Windows 11 24H2 release included improvements to crash dump collection which reduced downtime during an unexpected restart to about two seconds for most users.
The updated UI improves readability and aligns better with Windows 11 design principles, while preserving the technical information on the screen for when it is needed.
