    Error reporting feature?


    I recall reading some time ago about a new feature in Windows 7 for user generated error reporting that would allow a user to record their desktop / take periodic screenshots while they replicated an error, which would then allow them to forward / email the report to someone who could offer help.

    I can't seem to locate this feature in Windows 7 Ultimate, and i'm having trouble locating any articles talking about the feature.

    Was it removed or am i not looking hard enough?

    Thanks.

    Thanks matey.

    I'm assuming this feature is available in every single build of Win7?

    edit: Just read the thread -- Yes it is.

    Cheers.
