Hello,

Today while I was installing Bit Defender I had a BSOD "whea_uncorrectable_error"
This happened while it was installing, I tried to uninstall/install it twice and same thing happened, Windows wasn't able to automatically fix it.

Root cause found:
---------------------------
Boot critical file C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\bdelam.sys is corrupt.

Repair action: File repair
Result: Failed. Error code = 0x2
Time taken = 6750 ms

Click and apply to exit the dialogs, then reboot for the changes to take effect.
