title: Disable application crash dumps on Windows 7
body: <p>Silly question: <em>How do I prevent Windows 7 from storing the memory dump of a crashed application?</em></p>
  
  <p>I'm experimenting with the stack allocation in a C++ application, so the toy program crashes a lot. And for each crash, Windows dumps the memory to the %USER%/AppData/Local/CrashDumps. It's about 150MB each. How do I disable this? I've searched the internet far and wide. The only thing I could find on Windows 7 is <em>System&rarr;Advanced&rarr;Startup and Recovery&rarr;System failure crash dumps</em>, and I already disabled these.</p>
  
  <p>It's not really a big deal, just annoying because it sits in my user profile.</p>
