Enabling crashdump collection on Windows

Starting with Windows Vista, Windows can collect program crashdumps (coredumps) locally.

This can be used to help developers diagnose problems with crashing or unresponsive Slic3r.

To enable this feature and collect a crashdump, following these steps:

1. Download this registry file which enables crashdump collection, open it, and confirm adding it to the registry (Note: This requires admin privileges)
2. Run Slic3r and trigger or wait for a crash
3. If a dialog regarding crash reporting pops up, wait for it to finish and then close it
4. Open the crashdump folder. This is typically %LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps (you can paste this path into the file browser location line)
5. There should be a crashdump file present in the directory. If there are several, pick the one with the most recent modification time
6. Please share this file with the developers

Note that this enables system-wide collection of crashdumps, which may consume some disk space when Slic3r as well as other applications crash. To revert this, you can use this registry file to restore the default settings (crashdump collection disabled) and you may also delete the files in the crashdump folder.
