It’s a new improvement that the company hasn’t publicly disclosed, but a number of users have reported that they have found the new quick response codes in the latest preview of Windows 10 (build 14316), which suggests that it’ll come fully implemented on time for the release of the Anniversary Update. For Windows 10 users, the new quick response codes approach means that they can simply use their phones to scan the code and quickly find support articles to fix the problem. It will also help computer support technicians to accurately identify the Blue Screen of Death error code.
