Oh, and, BTW, does anyone know what the crash dump logs browsers generate are actually used for? None of the teams involved in helping me troubleshoot my crashes seemed to be interested in them nor did they seem to have any idea what they would do with them. #crash #Chrome #Edge #Google #Microsoft
#google #chrome #microsoft #edge #crash

If you're talking about .dmp files, I'm really surprised that the browser teams don't want them. Even as a third party I think I would be able to make some sense of a .dmp file from Chrome by loading it in the WinDbg debugger, if I know what version of Chrome you're running.

Actually though, I'd think Vispero would be in the best position to debug, since they'd have access to both the Chrome PDB files (which I believe are public) and the private JAWS PDB files.

@matt OK. Thanks for this I'll see where I can escalate. In the meantime I am running Chrome Canary where the crashes do not happen, so at least I know it will eventually be fixed.

@matt But, well, since it seems fixed in Canary I guess that's that, right? I'll just have to wait.

@matt Its pretty rough when you're dependent on a particular browser and all of a sudden it gets "upgraded" and breaks things.
