Yesterday, 6/14/2016, I received an automatic update for windows 10 from microsoft. I chose to update and shutdown and today, 6/15/2016, I received a blue screen while turning on my laptop. I was able to login after restarting my laptop. As I was using my laptop throughout the day, blue screens kept occurring randomly no matter what program I was using. I blue screened once while playing League of Legends and while playing Team Fortress 2 I blue screened multiple times after getting back on. I also blue screened while watching a youtube video later on and in the middle of running a MBAR scan. All of these blue screens were related to Netio.sys and this all happened today after updating my windows 10 last night. There were two updates.

Windows 10 updates :

Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 for x64-based Systems (KB3149135) (I checked to see if I could uninstall this but it was not possible, only the cumulative update below this was able to be uninstalled. I did not perform the uninstall.)

Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1511 for x64-based Systems (KB3163018) (Security update)

Minidump Zip File (There should be 6 files.)

I would leave it uninstalled another day, and if there are no more BS then you could certainly surmise that Bit defender was certainly part of the issue.

I would suggest one of the following in place of it, if it can not play well with the other programs on your machine.

360 Total Security.

SecureAplus

Sophos Home.
Alright, thanks! :)

Yep, then Bitdefender was the issue. I think it was part of the firewall that was actually causing the issue... Let us know what you decide to do. But it seems that you have McShield installed that will protect you offline. Consider Voodoo Shield to protect you while online. It is all the antivirus you could ever need... You have Zemana Premium correct? That and Voodoo shield and Mcshield... I think that is not any need for any more protection on your machine.

I have tested many many many malware samples with that setup on a machine and nothing was able to get through, at all....
