Hello,

Today I approved restart for my Windows 8.1 because of waiting updates to be finnished. Unfortunately I get BSOD (blue screen of death) after. During a day research I found that kb3025417 (March 2015 antimalware platform update for Windows Defender in Windows 8.1 and Windows 8) causes BSOD (blue screen of death) at windows startup. So windows just cycles BSODs at boot.

First I thought there is some problem with driver - there was update of bluetooth drivers in kb3029606 (Update to improve Bluetooth driver diagnosis in Windows 8.1), so I susspected there is some hardware incompatibility. But windows does not generated any dump file, what is strange because it complicated to find root cause so easy.

Fortunately there was restorepoint generated yesterday, so I was able to return Windows configuration from just day ago. Installing update by update I found that kb3025417 causes BSOD. Installing rest of updates from windows update rollout from March 10th 2015 was withouth problem. Just kb3025417 I may not install.

Google does not say anything about this problem. Is anybody here having same issue with this update?
