By default Windows 8 is set up to send anonymous reports to the Microsoft development team every time an error occurs with the operating system. Windows 8 not only sends the anonymous reports, but it also searches for the possible solution for the error and notifies you accordingly.

It is suggested that you do not disable Error Reporting in your Windows 8 laptop as it helps Microsoft improve its products, and searches and gives you the best available solution for the errors that may occur while using your laptop.

However, some people might not want their operating system to send any information to Microsoft, even if it is helpful for the development team. You can follow the steps given below to disable Error Reporting from your Windows 8 laptop:

    ■Log on to your Windows 8 laptop with an administrator account.
    ■Once you are on the Start screen, click the Desktop tile.
