In an effort to address a widespread Windows 10 outage, Microsoft and its partners are working with the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MEITY), according to Union Minister of Information and Broadcasting Ashwini Vaishnaw. To resolve this, users are advised to follow these steps:
· Boot Windows in Safe Mode or Windows Recovery Environment.
· Navigate to the C:\Windows\System32\drivers\
· Delete the file matching "C-00000291*.sys".
· Reboot the system normally.
Vaishnaw confirmed that the National Informatics Centre (NIC) network remains unaffected. Users are also encouraged to check the CrowdStrike portal for the latest updates and further instructions.
This proactive response aims to mitigate the impact of the outage and restore normalcy for the affected users.
As a consequence of the workflow disruption in India, Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Hyderabad has issued an advisory regarding a global IT outage impacting some airlines. This led to the cancellation of 23 flights, including Indigo's routes to Visakhapatnam, Tirupati, Ahmedabad, and Bengaluru. Passengers are advised to contact airlines for updates.
Notable companies affected included McDonald's Corp., United Airlines Holdings Inc., and the LSE Group, all of which faced significant customer service communication issues. These firms were among many corporations, spanning from Japan to India and the US, reporting operational glitches.
