At its Ignite developer conference this week, Microsoft announced a new feature for its Windows 11 operating system that will allow admins to remotely fix PCs with booting issues.
The company developed the feature as a way to tackle future cases like the CrowdStrike incident that crashed over 8.5 million PCs in July this year.
The new feature is named Quick Machine Recovery and will allow a company's IT administrators to tap into the Windows Update system to deliver fixes for boot-related bugs that normally require physical access to a machine.
