How to open crash log and examine why Windows 10 crashed

The Windows Reliability Monitor is an excellent feature in Windows Vista and newer versions of the OS that displays recent system and application crashes

To access this application, press "Start" and type "reliability" in the search box. And, in the results, select the label "View reliability history."

Here, you can view the history of events for the last few weeks, days, etc.

If something crashes in Windows, you will see a red circle with an "X" in the column for a specific day. You can simply click on the column for that day and see more information about this failure. Also, in the reliability history, you can see when you installed the software and when exactly the crashes started after installing a certain application.

To view an interesting event, double-click it with the left mouse button, and you will see a details window with additional information.

You can get help from the "Find Solutions to All Problems" (from experience, this function rarely finds real solutions). In addition, the Reliability Monitor extracts data from the same event logs that the Event Viewer uses.

To summarize, Windows 10 crash logs are useful to give you an idea of when crashes or important events occurred and start looking for possible causes on time.

You just need to decide on a specific version of DiskInternals Partition Recovery: licensed or free. You won't lose anything if you use the free preview feature.

Here is a small user guide for DiskInternals Partition Recovery:

• Once downloaded and opened the application, in the welcome window, click on Recovery Wizard.

• Click on "Next" and carefully wait for the scanning finish. Click on it, and all previously damaged or deleted files will be on the monitor screen in front of you. Browse them with the right mouse button and preview for free (it's still free).
