09 March 2021 - Windows update - KB5000802

We've been having some crashes in relation to the latest Windows update KB5000802 which are causing users to experience BSOD (Blue Screen of Death), see image below:

I've collected some data from the minidump file as to which drivers could be causing this to happen and the same three have been picked up on several computers facing this problem.

win32kfull.sys

win32kbase.sys

ntoskrnl.exe

So far the trigger to the BSOD with the current Windows update version has been:

  • Visio 365, when the user loads up a file and selects "File"
  • when a user tries to print something and it tries to load the print preview window

Our current solution to this problem has been to uninstall Update KB5000802 from the Windows Update Settings -> View Update History -> Uninstall updates

If Microsoft could please shed some light on this particular issue or if there's info on an upcoming fix release, that would be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

    Updating via Windows Update will throw an error.

    Best to do the manual download/install from here:https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=KB5001649****

    Let it do its thing. When it's finished installing, you will be asked to restart.

    I may be wrong but I believe this was corrected in a later Flight.

    Update 3/10/21: The updates are back and Microsoft states nothing was changed.

    There are comments in the update description regarding printing, check the 2004 section. It also tells you how to uninstall the LCU and SSU, which came with the update..
