Windows Error Reporting¶
Introduction¶
Windows Error Reporting(WER) is an application error reporting technology built into Windows. By default, Windows systems enable error reporting for crashes, non-responses, and kernel faults in applications.
To quickly resolve issues on the Windows platform, Qualcomm® Neural Processing SDK now uses this infrastructure to generate application-specific problem reports and automatically notify Microsoft.
Integrating Windows Error Reporting (WER) with Qualcomm® Neural Processing SDK¶
Starting from version 2.28.0, Qualcomm® Neural Processing SDK generates WER generic event reports for critical SDK errors. The application will continue executing after generating error reports, with all Qualcomm® Neural Processing SDK API usage and behavior remaining unchanged.
WER report generation is automatic and always enabled in the Qualcomm® Neural Processing SDK. However, report submissions are controlled by the end users’ Windows OS privacy settings.
