My application is crashing on a customer's machine. I'd like to get him to send me a crash dump. What is the simplest, least-painful way I can ask him to do this for me? Command line utils, for example, will simply not work here.

I've heard tale that setting a registry key in Windows somewhere will cause it to save a crash dump at a location you specify. I have not been able to find this mysterious key though.

So assumming Windows 7, here's one site that describes how to generate crash dumps: http://kb.acronis.com/content/38195

This uses the built-in Windows Error Reporting (WER)
