Unexpected shutdown -- alert, after AV upgrades
I have NOT had a BSOD
This is a copy of the "View Details" report
When I saw the "Blue Screen", not sure which sub-forum to post on.Code:Problem signature: Problem Event Name: BlueScreen OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3 Locale ID: 3081 Additional information about the problem: BCCode: 1000004a BCP1: 8368C951 BCP2: 00000002 BCP3: 00000000 BCP4: 00000000 OS Version: 6_1_7601 Service Pack: 1_0 Product: 768_1 Files that help describe the problem: C:\Windows\Minidump\070916-25864-01.dmp C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Local\Temp\WER-60107-0.sysdata.xml Read our privacy statement online: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=104288&clcid=0x0409 If the online privacy statement is not available, please read our privacy statement offline: C:\windows\system32\en-US\erofflps.txt
I had just installed Bitdefender Internet Security 2016 (aka. BIS-2016)
- to replace BIS-2015 -- BIS-2016 required all other BD products to be removed/uninstalled
- which I did with the official BD uninstaller_2016
Every year AV renewals always cause problems ...On another machine (64bit Win7 PRO) new BD has sabotaged "OpenWith" assignments and locked opening TXT files to Notepad.End of rant
Brink's REG file solutions Restore_Open_With.reg and Default_TXT.reg did not resolve the issue
The only way I could change the file-association for .TXT was with File Type Manager by Nirsoft

This 32bit Win-7 Home Premium laptop was screwed up by Kaspersky install in March last year and I have not had email on this machine ever since, despite clean re-installs (of mail client) and trialing other mail clients.

So my faith in AVs is very strained to say the least.
Since the alert on this machine everything is operating fine, and the temptation to-fix is strong... but now it ain't broken.
From the above "results" can anybody interpret what the problem might have been ? :)------------
ADDEND:
Last year I screwed up the TXT and VBS file associations and Brink's .REG files rectified my screw-up.
Thanks Shaun :)
