[Blue screen error message with QR code]
"Blue screen", or "blue screen of death" is the nightmare of all Windows users. As the versions of Windows advanced, it got harder to meet the blue screen, but when the error-message-filled-screen in the color of blue pops up, it means the end. Full stop to whatever the user was doing on the PC, and would have to restart the computer again.
The biggest problem with the blue screen is that nobody knows what the error messages meant. To let the users know where they or the computer messed up, The Windows' maker Microsoft added QR codes to the Blue Screens displayed while using the Windows 10.
The QR code, square-shaped barcode shown on the Blue Screen, leads the users to a 'troubleshooting blue screen errors' page on the official Windows website when the image is read by secondary devices such as a smartphone or a tablet.
Although the current solution provided by the QR code is somewhat limited, it is expected that the Microsoft will provide more diverse and delicate solution to the users who have seen the blue screen error in the future.
