The WORKER_THREAD_INVALID_STATE error, also known as the 0x1D2 validation error, indicates that the executing worker thread is in an invalid state. This error can occur when a worker thread has outstanding I/O operations in the process of terminating. This is a type of blue screen of death (BSOD) error that can cause the system to crash due to corrupt or outdat drivers, hardware issues, or inappropriate BIOS settings.
If possible, start by physically inspecting the hardware components for overheating or any signs of damage. If you have recently install any hardware components, make sure they are compatible with your system.
How to fix WORKER_THREAD_INVALID_STATE?
Update your hardware drivers

The first piece of software that detects your hardware components is the BIOS. A mismatch between BIOS and Windows detection can cause this WORKER_THREAD_INVALID_STATE BSoD, so we recommend resetting the BIOS settings. Updating the BIOS to the latest firmware version is also a good measure to resolve this issue.
Run system diagnostics and SFC scan
