The utility allows IT administrators to quickly restore affected systems by creating a bootable USB drive.
The CrowdStrike update has already been patched, but not all devices may receive the patch automatically.
Some administrators report that rebooting multiple times does the trick, but others require manually booting into Safe Mode and deleting the problematic file.
A new tool from Microsoft simplifies the recovery process by booting the machine into Windows PE via USB, accessing the drive, and automatically deleting the problematic CrowdStrike file.
This way, they can bypass the need to boot into safe mode and control administrative rights on the device. If the drive is protected with BitLocker encryption, the tool will ask for a recovery key.
