Microsoft Windows Update Causes Global IT Outage, Resulting in Flight Cancellations and Delays: A Look at the Root Cause and Impact on Airlines

Broke On: Friday, 19 July 2024 A defective Microsoft Windows update by CrowdStrike caused a global IT outage on July 19, 2024, resulting in over 980 flight cancellations and nearly 1,400 delays for major airlines like United Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and American Airlines. The issue stemmed from an error in Channel File 291 of Falcon sensor software used for communication in Windows systems.
