Questions about WER dumps
Hello,
I have a W7 computer that periodically produces WER dumps in a batch (say 3 - 6 dumps) all at the same time, but each "batch" of dumps will be for different applications (i.e. there is no obvious pattern).
I have inspected some of these dumps with Windbg and while I am a novice at analysing dumps, the errors for each dump appear to be different (e.g. different exceptions etc.); there is no common pattern that I can see.
The WER dumps are being produced with the default configuration, I have not for instance configured Full User-Mode dumps.
The questions that I have:
- If I were to configure Full User-Mode dumps, would this result in a BSOD?
- Is it likely that a Full User-Mode dump could provide more useful diagnostic info, or is a kernel dump far more likely to be of use?
Thank you.
