In Windows 11, Microsoft is introducing a new Black Screen in place of the notorious Blue Screen of Death, which has existed for more than 30 years.

Blue might be a crucial color for millennials. It is connected to hints left by a good-hearted dog when we were little. As Microsoft revealed on Thursday that the screen would be formally replaced with a less amiable but more effective Black Screen of Death, the world is now prepared to say goodbye to a generation's most dreaded and memorable error message.

The streamlined interface, which will be used later this summer, improves readability and more closely adheres to Windows 11 design principles, according to a blog post from Microsoft. The technical information is only displayed when necessary. A new notification will show up in white font with the message, "Your device ran into a problem and needs to restart." For over thirty years, Windows has used a blue screen to indicate a significant system crash or slowdown.

Steve Ballmer, Former CEO, wrote an initial draft of the letter, according to veteran Microsoft engineer Raymond Chen. Released in the early S, the statement "This Windows application has stopped responding to the system" would cover the screen. Below, a number of calming options were displayed over the blue-screen background, such as ESC and ENTER, which would give you the impression that the issue could be resolved, followed by the last option, "Ctrl+Alt+Del," which would force you to give up and start over.
