Bug Fixes v7.1.2963 - 17th March 2018
- Windows 7/10 32 Bit BSOD when booting
A Windows Update on the 13th March has caused some Windows 7 and 10 32 bit systems to fail to load Windows after updating. The error occurs when kernel mode driver 'pssnap.sys' loads at boot time. This update removes 'pssnap.sys' from boot time configuration. Note: Simply deleting the file is insufficient to resolve the problem.
We recommend that 32 bit installations of Macrium Reflect on XP, Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 10 upgraded from Windows 7, 32 bit operating systems update to this release.
If you have already updated Windows and experience this error then please see this KB article for a solution:

If you have not yet updated Windows then please update to this version of Macrium Reflect to enable Windows to update without problems.
After updating, XP, Vista and Windows 7 32 bit systems, will no longer have 'pssnap.sys' available. If MS VSS shadow copies fail, then your backups will no-longer fall back to using 'pssnap'. Please ensure that any VSS errors are resolved to successfully complete your backups.
- Rescue media crash at boot
The rescue media could fail to boot and cause a run time error. This has been resolved.
We recommend creating fresh Windows PE rescue media after updating.
- mrcbt.sys Update
The Macrium Changed Block Tracker driver mrcbt.sys has been updated to comply with the new kernel mode driver requirements for the Insider Preview and subsequent public release of Windows 10.
This resolves the problem discussed here:

- New command line parameter '-noconsole'
A new parameter is available in the command line, -noconsole, that enables redirection of stdout and stderr.
