BSODs After Installing Glary Utilities
I Installed the free version of Glary Utilities to my computer, a Dell Precision 690 WorkStation desktop (Windows 7 Professional 32-bit, Service Pack 1). I did so to compare it to Advanced SystemCare, which I've had on my computer for more than five years (Currently have PRO Version 7).
After installing GU and running several of its features, I noticed the next morning a Windows message that it had "recovered form an unexpected shutdown" -- meaning a BSOD crash. So I ran WhoCrashed to learn the cause and received the following information:
