Microsoft announced that it will replace the infamous ‘Blue Screen of Death’ with a new ‘Black Screen of Death’ later this summer, improving readability and aligning with Windows 11 design principles.

After over 40 years, Microsoft plans to change the infamous ‘Blue Screen of Death’ to a black background as part of efforts to improve Windows resilience following major incidents like last year’s CrowdStrike crash.
