Interesting problem where running afuwinx64 gui literally freezes the OS. Like a kernel level crash.. minus the actual crash....
afuwin tool downloaded from, https://ami.com/en/download-license-agre...ate_Utility.zip, .. (it's version 3.09.03.1462).
OS is Win 10.0.17134 x64(Redstone 4, April 2018 update... next major update from Creator's Update)

Can't collect debug, or crash or anything.. It literally freezes OS..

Thoughts ?
