Those are good news (as long as the minidumps contain some useful information...). Some programs do have this feature (e.g. Firefox) but because there is no feedback to the user I always have the feeling that the Crash reports are only a "feel good" feature and that the emails are sent directly to the bin... Maybe LibreOffice can do better on user involvement.

Hi Stuart Thank you for the quick answer. Is this a new feature in LibreOffice? In case anyone is interested, the way to disable it is described in this page http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6035112/disable-application-crash-dumps-on-windows-7 Thanks!

Re: [Libreoffice-qa] CrashDumps?
You can delete them safely. They are "mini" dumps that depending on available symbols can be attached to WinDbg and analyse the crash, or obtain a stack trace to review. They get generated by default per user into their %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\CrashDumps if this Windows registry key is present: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps Note: a program runing as Windows SYSTEM, should not normally be the case with LibreOffice, will dump with defaults to: C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\CrashDumps -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/CrashDumps-tp4183396p4183399.html Sent from the QA mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: Libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org Change settings: https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/
[Libreoffice-qa] CrashDumps?
Hi all While deleting temporary files in my Win 7 Pro x64 machine I found a folder named CrashDumps in my %LOCALAPPDATA% folder. Inside it I found a bunch of soffice.bin.#.dmp files (where # are numbers) Is this a new feature? I'm currently using Version: 5.1.3.2 (x64) Build ID: 644e4637d1d8544fd9f56425bd6cec110e49301b CPU Threads: 8; OS Version: Windows 6.1; UI Render: default; Locale: pt-PT (pt_PT) Are these files useful even if I can't reproduce what caused the crash(es)? Should I upload them somewhere or can I simply delete it?
