Please confirm that these have been removed:

C:\Windows\AAct_Tools\wdvdriver\x64WDV\WinDivert64.sys

C:\Program Files\Cloudflare\Cloudflare WARP\WinDivert64.sys

Hang on a second, no. As far as the rules are concerned VPNs from legitimate sources are not illegal. You don't have the right to 'force' someone to remove a piece of software that:

Is not causing the issue related to the crashes
is not pirated software or illegal

Cloudflare WARP does not have a windivert file that I can find, even if it did, again, its not against the forum rules because it is not an illegal system file in of itself.

12) These tests / steps can run overnight while sleeping:
a) HD Tune full error scan
b) Sea Tools for Windows Long Generic Test
c) Chkdsk /b /v

13) If all of the drives display unremarkable test results plan to run chkdsk /b /v on all drives using the syntax:

chkdsk /b /v C: or chkdsk /b /v D: or chkdsk /b /v E: etc.

These chkdsk switches can take significant time so make sure that the Windows drive runs overnight while sleeping.

C:\WINDOWS\system32>chkdsk /b /v
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Cannot lock current drive.

Chkdsk cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process. Would you like to schedule this volume to be
checked the next time the system restarts? (Y/N)

Type: Y

Reboot as needed.

14) When all of the chkdsk tests have completed run:
