    Here’s how one user describes this issue on Microsoft’s support page:

    In a recent Windows 7 Professional update, KB4343900 caused the blue screen of death after I restarted my computer. I managed to start the PC in Safe Mode and uninstalled the update and it is working well since then. Considering it is deemed as an important update, how can I reinstall the update without the blue screen of death reappearing?

    Well, if you experienced similar issues and you want to play on the safe side, you can try to reinstall this patch once again.
