after i reinstalled windows 10 it still causes BSOD

Describe the bug

1.install the ExplorerPatcher
2.Restart your pc
3.Enjoy your BSOD with Critical Process Died and Whea Uncorrectable Error :(

Expected outcome

My PC is experiencing intermittent blue screens on Windows 11. I initially thought it was a problem with my graphics card, so I replaced it with a brand new one. However, the blue screens still occur at the login screen or after Windows has finished booting. The error code is always "Critical Process Died." After ruling out hardware issues, I reinstalled Windows 10 version 22h2. After the system installation, all programs worked normally without any blue screens. However, just after installing explorerpatcher, the same blue screen appeared twice, with the error code "WHEA UNCORRECTABLE ERROR" in both cases. Therefore, to prevent others from encountering this problem, I've opened this issue.
