Vulnerability discussion

The Turn off Crash Detection policy setting allows you to manage the crash detection feature of add-on management in Internet Explorer. If you enable this policy setting, a crash in Internet Explorer will be similar to one on a computer running Windows XP Professional Service Pack 1 and earlier; Windows Error Reporting will be invoked. If you disable this policy setting, the crash detection feature in add-on management will be functional. Because Internet Explorer crash report information could contain sensitive information from the computer's memory, this guide recommends configuring this option to Enabled unless experiencing frequent repeated crashes and need to report them for follow-up troubleshooting. In those cases, you could temporarily configure the setting to Disabled.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
