[Win 10 x64] BSOD
I noticed my shared BTRFS drive was BSOD'ing after steam was trying to write to the steamlibrary folder, and upon manually checking the folders/subfolders of my steamlibrary, I noticed (right before BSOD'ing) that a empty (or invalid, it read 0kb) "steam.dll.symlink" file had been placed in the folder, which when Windows tried to interact, it would cause a hard BSOD. Deleting the file through linux fixed the issue. If needed, I can try to fish out the file that caused the crashing.
Actually, I just doublechecked -- I errornously thought that the root cause was the symlink file, yet I'm back to crashing. Checking the bluescreen dump, the crash seems to come from storachi.sys, and sometimes dumping CLASSPNP.sys, which is a SCSI driver. Weird, since it's not using any SCSI, all SATA.
Windows dump reports that the storahci,sys driver is running into an access violation trying to access 0x0000000. This only occurs on my btrfs drive, all other drives are fine to search and dir through subdirectories.
I have also had the same issue.

I recently found the issue with my driver. It's always after coming back from my linux VM that I have this issue; turns out winbtrfs hard-crashes if it can't resolve the location of a hardlink. The offending file is just a symlink to a steam dll in my /home/ folder for compatibility reasons (Proton stuff).
maybe you could boot into linux and try to fix the issue from there?
@publicarray, @dotqurter - could you send me your minidumps please?

I usually can, problem is that it happens everytime steam is started from linux. It's a pain.

I'm having trouble getting one -- Windows' error dumper gets hung at 60% for me while doing it.
Sorry @dotqurter I no longer have the minidumps, and I've not noticed any more issues. Maybe I need to run a steam game with the game library on a btrf volume again.
I'm on latest driver and still suffering from crashes. Last crash was right now.

i'm suffering same BSOD's with latest version (1.7.7). i have minidumps. Minidumps.zip
I just had the problem too with a new setup on 1.8. Still have the minidump but besides the CLASSPNP.sys nothing of interest. But I think the reason was the btrfs drive to be assigned as G: and after a new linux configuration I did de- and now reattach the drive that's been previously G:.
But I could not rename the drive letter in btrfs tab. For now i've simply renamed the sys (to be save on win system using the repair options). Is there any other way to rename the drive letter? In any way such conflicts should be taken in advance.
