StefanG3D Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) Before you analyse a crash dump, check if the text files at c:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportArchive\ expose the infos you need. Kernel crash dumps are stored at c:\Windows\LiveKernelReports\ c:\Windows\Minidump\ and need to be analysed with WINDBG (Visual Studio complains that kernel dumps are in old format) Application crash dumps are stored at: c:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\CrashDumps\ c:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\CrashDumps\ c:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp\ and need to be analysed with Visual Studio (WINDBG is stuck at first exception) How to create a user-mode process dump file https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/931673/how-to-create-a-user-mode-process-dump-file-in-windows Collecting a full memory dump in Windows 10 http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4641 Edited November 1, 2021 by StefanG3D another location for app dumps added Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
