Welcome

There are no dump files in the attached zip. Please make sure you're following the instructions correctly.

I see that you have Microsoft Security Installed but you also have McAfee? It's a known cause to BSODs.

→ McAfee Removal Tool - McAfee Uninstaller

Run the system file checker to repair corrupted windows files.

Like I said uninstall McAfee, it alone is a known cause to BSoDs.

Keep MSE. I will take a look at the dump in a while.

Edit: STOP 0x000000E1: WORKER_THREAD_RETURNED_AT_BAD_IRQL
Usual causes: Device driver

Let me know how your computer performs after uninstalling McAfee, if needed we'll do more troubleshooting.
