I rebooted and the boot screen did not have the windows logo or the spinning dots, it was completely blank and just sat there. I was able to get an official April WppRecorder.sys driver and I went into the System32>Drivers folder on the external SSD (from my Mac Finder, which can read/write the NTFS with Paragon's sw installed,) and I renamed the October version to. I don't know the right way to replace the current driver. The fix is to replace C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\WppRecorder.sys from your media with an earlier version, such as the one you can find from the April 2018 release. The installation was successful even doing all the reboots during the install, but when finished and booting for the first time to the newly installed OS, Windows gives me a BSOD with error code: DRIVER UNLOADED WITHOUT CANCELLING OPERATION against WppRecorder.sys.įurther research revealed that this error happens due to Microsoft including a new version of the WppRecorder.sys driver in the October 2018 build that has a major bug when you are trying to run Windows from a media that is accessed through USB.
I did a VirtualBox install to an external SSD (Samsung T5), actually installing it directly to the hard drive by tricking the installer into thinking the SSD was the primary OS X drive. I don't know how to fix a BSOD I get booting for the first time into a newly installed Win 10 on my MacBook Air.
