Open "System" from Control Panel *or* right click "My Computer" and choose
Properties. At the bottom of the "Advanced" tab click Error Reporting. Set
as desired.

Those prompts that MS use to
a/ decide what bugs to work on - disable it and you won't be voting for yours to be fixed
b/ to tell you what to do to fix it if it's a known error with a known cause.

I've never seen a single useful suggestion accompanying "____ has
encountered an error and needs to close". Maybe your experience has
been different.

Q: Why do I not get an answer to my question(s)?
A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
