Sure to annoy IT people but those just need a line of text while the rest of the screen is free real estate for Micro$oft! Public BSODs tend to go viral too.

How would you even understand what the screen means if it doesn’t tell you this anymore

Read the post body. It’s two sentences.

That’s not related to what I meant, I meant that the BSOD in its current state doesn’t show anything useful; some generic error, a QR code leading to a generic page, a code that still doesn’t let you find more than “I had a BSOD”…

So hypothetically McAfee dating “You don’t seem to know what this screen means […]” is ironic, as I don’t think anybody does since Win 8.
