Crash Dump files: Associate with WINDBG
InformationThis instructions are for associating crash dump files with windbg, debugging tool for windows; so that double clicking on the crash dump files will directly open it with windbg only.NoteIt is suggested that you install windbg in the default location. Installing it in any other location is not really needed.
When you have WINDBG installed, if you associate the crash dumps with that program, a simple double click on a crash dump will open it with windbg directly. Here's how:1. Open a command prompt.If you are not certain about your installation directory that is needed as per step 3 ..... determine it ...
2. Get back to root. Simple DOS command.... cd/
Note that after hitting enter, you are on C prompt.
3. Now go the the installation directory .... CD (change directory).
The usual installation location is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\Debuggers\x64\windbg.exe" ... so we have changed the directory to C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0\Debuggers\x64
4. Now, the required command is .... windbg.exe -IA
Put the command and hit enter .... windbg will open automatically, saying this ...
Done. Now every double click on a single crash dump will open it in windbg directly.
