Question My PC gave me a "ntoskrnl.exe" BSOD when i was starting up Ghost Spectre Windows 11 ?

[stewuie]

I was using a custom os at that time and the OS was Ghost Spectre Windows 11. I was debloating it by using ShutUp10 & Optimizer & Chris Titus's Debloater.

I restarted and i was then playing a game then i went over to ShutUp10 again just to be sure i applied some changes again and restarted once booted i was greeted by a BSOD the stop code was "ntoskrnl.exe" and after that i was anxious ever since i went as far as reinstalling windows but my anxiety keep following me soon after it never bsod'ed after that, but could it be rufus's and ghost spectres fault?

I also recently installed my Windows with rufus and i keep waiting for the bsod to pop up, is rufus completely fine? I debloated my Windows again with a safer option this time by only choosing specific settings. The app i used is WinSlap, Optimizer & Chris Titus's Debloater only on specific safer settings.

I also never got ahold of the dump file i tried opening it on ghost spectre superlite se and it wont open it for some reason this happened 8 days ago should i be concerned?

I have been running memory diagnostics, sfc scannows and dism ever since.

It gave me trust issues.

I reformatted my pc for like 5 attempts because i was really anxious but neither of them got a bsod ever again.

Im in Windows 10 rn with light debloat only WinSlap, Optimizer, The Chris Titus Tweaks Debloater

What really caused this?

Should i clean install again? or did i accidentally deleted system files with shutup10 by debloating a already bloat-free os and messing up ntoskrnl.exe?
