Question Disable crashdumps in appdata?

[Farinder]

Hello there as title says what do I need to do in order to stop it? I did already disable the windows error reporting service but that didn t work. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

"disable it"
Presumably you mean stop the creation of a file of Windows telling you why it crashed?

Why not fix the reason it crashes?

yes, stopping the creation of the files. It's just a bunch of old games, known for crashing, nothing I can do about that

Change the value of error reporting in the Registry.

Of course, you make a full backup of the Registry before you go down this road.

I assume this reply? "open regedit, navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting

then go to Edit > New > DWORD and name the key disabled, then change it's value to 1."

Is that the only known solution?

Thats all I found.

what about this?

Under the tab "Maintenance", you can click "View reliability history", which will show a list of all app crashes. You can then click "View technical details" beside each crash to get more detailed information, such as a the error code(s) thrown from the application on crash

Doesn't that mean files are still created, maybe elsewhere, if you can still view that info?

If you can "view it", obviously it exists.
Beyond that, I do not know.

welp that would mean i would have to find the dumps in an unknown location, that won't solve my problem at all :\
