To fix the bungled CrowdStrike update, apparently you need to boot the system into safe mode and remove a file.
If the system was encrypted with Bitlocker, you need to enter the system's Bitlocker recovery key.
Apparently, many people are discovering they didn't have key management in place to store Bitlocker recovery keys, making it akin to a self-inflicted ransomware attack.
