Never Mind All!

Dump files are really useful when you need to troubleshoot BSOD, application crashes, freezing, and any problem a Windows box maybe exhibiting.

Here are the steps to create a dump file in Windows Vista.

Type Windbg in the Instant Search and choose File|Open Crash Dump.

I worked it out, its used to Trouble shoot and find whats causing problems in the chosen Application.
