About this task
Sometimes, your PC restarts automatically or stops responding and a blue screen is displayed. This is known as the blue screen error. A blue screen error is displayed when some critical data on the PC is corrupted, a hardware failure is detected, or an issue is detected on the PC and the PC needs to be restarted immediately.
You can fix a blue screen error by running
SupportAssist scans and optimization.
