BSOD-simulator

A prank app simulating a stop error on a Windows device image

The system did not actually crash.

It is just a borderless window that displays preset error messages, serving as a foolish prank

WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO LOCK THE COMPUTER (Windows + L or Ctrl+Alt+Del lock)

Due to the fact that this app suspends Windows' explorer.exe, any attempt to discard the suspended process will result in serious aftermath.

How does this app makes the stop error look real

Alt + F4 is disabled to prevent users from easily quitting the app

cursor will be hidden to make the crash seem more promising

Any other opened windows will be forced below the app so task manager cannot be accessed

How to properly exit the app

Ctrl + Up (arrow) to exit the app properly (resumes the suspended explorer.exe and closes the app)

This app is meant to be a prank. It does no damage to any computers in any way (when handled properly)
