How to Disable Crash Dumps Creation on Windows 11

Whenever Windows 11 encounters a Blue or Black Screen error, it creates a crash dump file and saves it on your hard drive. The crash dump files in Windows 11 are created to help developers find & troubleshoot the actual cause of the errors. However, it’s best to delete those files if you are not a developer and never share your crash dump report with any developers or tech experts.
