Any operating system, which includes Windows, is vulnerable. If system errors reach a critical level, the built-in fighting mechanism comes into play - an automatic restart of the operating system. In most cases, this is sufficient. If the error is still not resolved, it becomes necessary to disable the reboot mechanism in order to find out the reasons for what is happening. The result will be the appearance of the so-called "blue screen of death" with a BSOD code, which shows the cause of the failure.
