Bug Fixes
- Blue Screen Prevention: Resolved an issue that could cause a Blue Screen showing 'Inaccessible Boot Device' error. Agent logic has been updated to monitor the state of the cbtfilter driver. If the filter driver has been blocked, all backups will run as a diffmerge until the installation is completed successfully and the system is rebooted. Please make the recommended adjustments in your AV/EDR solution as detailed here.
