From here, you are able to configure how Windows boots up and how it reacts to a crash. The default options are usually sufficient here, however be aware of the “Write Debugging Information” option. If you are experiencing issues with Windows crashing and you open a support call with Microsoft, they may ask you to send them a “crash dump” – a complete dump of system memory at the time the error occurred. This dialog allows you to choose between no dump, a mini dump, a kernel dump and a complete memory dump. Analyzing these dump files is a very specialized task, and one that the CompTIA A+ Exam will not expect you to understand!
