Ok..
Well, I thought I was doing all you said to do, correctly:
I put in the 4k Godz movie in 1st, and then opened MKV, hit the "BACKUP" tab, and 1/2 way through, I get the "BWoD" 'Blue Windows of Death'!!
What am I doing wrong>? I have, now, 1.8 TB on the "J:" drive. Do I need more space?

Really 'confused-as-all-Hell'
Did MakeMKV stop ripping half way through? If so, what did the log window at the bottom say? Copy and paste the log comments here.

What is J drive? Is that an external HDD or SSD? If so, make sure it if formatted as NTFS.
Cheers :D

Yes, that is what it seemed to do.. Am I supposed to "Back-Up" 1st, before hitting the "MKV Folder" tab?
"J:" is my 2TB drive that I will be using to set up the MKV Folder, needed for the MKV process.

I have to be quick to "Catch" anything, as I get the BSoD when it says it is copying files, 1/2 way thru..

I had to "Capture" this, and within seconds (saying it is copying, and after it Decrypts..) I get the BSoD, and the computer restarts. On the full screen, if You can't see, it says Elapsed 10sec. and on the bottom bar, 22sec

I killed All that is on my "J:" drive, and looks to already be formatted as NTFC (would I still need to Format?), so What/Why am I Still getting the BSOD this time, when I opened up MKV, it completed the Decrypt/Copying, and as soon as I tagged the MakeMKV button, screen went all 'KaBLUEy' on me!?

Do I Still Need the Latest JAVA installed? To aid in any firmware updates?

I also read somewhere that I might need to install the "64-bit with Fall Creators Update 2017 Oct. update" on my PC, which I have, is the Win 10.5 (enterprise ver.) I have no idea, if that should even be used..>>

Would it be helpful to give you a 'SPECCY' readout of my Computer set-up?? ..just fishin' here..

The Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide recommends WH14NS40 on any Firmware directly to > WH16NS60 1.02MK

After you flash your drive to WH16NS60 1.02MK does the LibreDrive Information section on MakeMKV's first screen say the status is Enabled?
Turns out that the comment that I saw right after I left my comment said to another person to enable internet access on MakeMKV and that was the solution.
