Hello friends. I am posting this for a need. I have been suffering from the "Driver_IRQL_Less_Or_Not_Equal Windows 10 Blue Screen error" for the last couple of days. At present, I am using McAfee. I did a Google search and found this. There mentioned a point that may be the culprit is the "Firewall" and should I turn it off. Guys, can I follow the process mentioned there?

Hi @Nathandodd ,
Greetings from McAfee.
If you suspect McAfee firewall causing the problem, you can temporally uninstall McAfee and check Performance. If you still encounter error after Mcafee uninstalled, Contact your system manufacturer for rollback, disable or uninstall drivers recently installed on your computer. Kindly refer the below article to uninstall and reinstall Mcafee.

Thanks for replying. You are right. Antivirus was the main culprit.

Hi there! Have you changed your antivirus? Did the problem reappear?
Hi there, Apps that use your laptop camera, or webcam, might not work correctly if the Firewall blocks them. For example, you might be unable to use video conferencing apps such as zoom or the video conferencing apps. So there may be some driver which can cause this. Regarding firewall you can configure it in the permission list and it will be resolved.
