Generate crash dumps
IGCIT Helper (method 1)
You need to clean the dump folders first to remove old and unwanted dumps
Go to Tools, in Crash dumps section, click Clear dump folders
Now reproduce your issue, and, when it occurs and dumps are generated, run IGCIT Helper and follow these instructions:
Go to Tools, in Crash dumps section, click Extract (compressed)
Select the output folder for the extraction
All dumps in your system will be extracted, except memory dumps (See dumps locations table)
IGCIT Helper will generate a compressed 7z archive
Upload it to your issue, or, if its size is greater than 25Mb, upload it somewhere and paste the link
Note:
If TDR dump files (WATCHDOG*.dmp) are not generated any more, do the following:
Go to Tools, in Crash dumps section, click Fix watchdog dumps
Manually (method 2)
Reproduce your issue, and, when it occurs, look for the following locations: See dumps locations table
Compress all the logs and attach the archive (.zip) to your issue, or, if its size is greater than 25Mb, upload it somewhere and paste the link
Note:
If TDR dump files (WATCHDOG*.dmp) are not generated anymore, run the following command and reboot:
reg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\CrashControl\LiveKernelReports\WATCHDOG /f
