Hello,
Weird issue at a client that started on 3/20. On select machines, when the user logs off the workstation will blue screen. For now it does not affect business, and they are booting back up w/o issue, but it’s only a matter of time before the OS is corrupted. From the research I’ve done, it looks like ntoskrnl.exe is the cause, and this and other files were updated on 3/19; most likely from a Windows update. No option to remove these updates nor to roll back to previous OS checkpoint. Already ran Malwarebytes and only minor items were found and quarantined and the BSOD issue remained the same.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Nick

It's kind of a long read but does this post sound like it might be applicable?
 
Hi bwv848,
I agree and have been checking on a regular basis for a new Windows update, but it shows "up to date". I will take a look at KB4099467.
Thank you.
 
Status update > today I received the following error when checking for Windows updates >
Error > "windows update cannot currently check for updates because the service is not running" > and needed to perform the following to correct:
1. Stop the Windows Update service
2. Delete the contents of C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution
3. Restart the Windows Update service
4. Successfully re-ran Windows Update
Re-check for Windows updates and install as needed > install KB4099467 > restart and re-check for updates > none available
This is a multi-user workstation and is logged on/off multiple times throughout the day. I will monitor the C:\Windows\Minidump directory and re-post results tomorrow afternoon.
 
Sorry for the delayed response - status update.
The issue has definitely been resolved after performing latest Windows updates and installing the KB4099467 patch to all affected workstations.
Thank you all for your help (I have donated as well)!
Best regards,
Nick
