How to read DMP files Now that .dmp files are being generated for each BSOD, you need an app that can open them.

Unless your desparate to dig around inside a DMP file, you'll likely get just as much useful information from the system event log on the system that had the BSOD, You'll get the info a lot faster ...

Reading those files is 90% skill, 10% software. Which is why there is no built-in method for opening them. End users would not know what to do with that information.
