O ne of the first things that comes to mind when you think of Windows is the blue error screen, also known as the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD). It seems that Microsoft is making a significant change to this iconic feature after nearly 40 years. Now, you won’t be seeing the blue error screen when your computer runs into a problem.

Microsoft is scrapping the blue screen of death, the dreaded error screen that appears when your computer is malfunctioning. Instead, the screen will now turn black. The company says the update will improve the restart process.
