Disable Error Reporting When Program Crashes in Windows XP


Want to get rid of the error reporting dialog box that Windows XP so promptly displays when some application crashes?

Here is a perfect solution for this. Now, XP does not have a chance to again ask you seriously whether you want to report why a program has crashed on your computer.

Follow these simple steps:

1. Go to Start | Control Panel

2. Double click on “System” and then click on the “Advanced” tab.

3. There will be an “Error Reporting” button at the very end.

4. Select “Disable Error Reporting”. So, what this does is, as this option is selected, Error reports will not be generated henceforth.

5. But, you can be a bit wise and choose the option “But notify me when critical error occurs” to have Windows notify you when a critical error occurs, even though you have disabled error reporting.

Now Click on “OK” and you are done with the task.

Simple, isn’t it?

Go do it and get rid of the error reporting service.
