It used to be that an application crash (unhandled exception) would create a mini dump in the %TEMP% folder on an XP machine, but it looks like Microsoft has changed this logic – maybe with an update.
When a user level application or a service crashes, does it still create a mini-dump? Where does it get saved?
PS: I’m not interested in the BSOD, system, or kernel dump. This pertains to a user level application crash that does not bring down Windows.
I installed the Debugging Tools For Windows and used adplus in -crash mode in order to get the dumps I wanted.
