How to get Rid of “Send Error Report” function in Windows


I hate this “helpful” popup function in Windows XP. When an application crashes an error report window will pop up asking if you want to report the problem. I do not.

One of the first things I do after an new Windows install is to get rid of this nagging application/function.

            1. Lisa, thanks for the helpful tip. It never even occurred to me that I could do this. But after reading your tip, it’s a done deal. Now no more annoying error reporting messages since I crash IE several times a day. :cool:
