Microsoft Error Reporting (WER)

Microsoft Error Reporting (WER) is a system that collects and sends information about problems or crashes in Windows and Microsoft applications to Microsoft. Its purpose is to help identify, analyze, and fix issues to improve system stability and performance. When an error occurs, WER prompts users to send details anonymously, which are then used by Microsoft engineers for troubleshooting and developing updates. It operates in the background, ensuring users are informed of errors without disrupting their workflow, and helps maintain a reliable computing experience.
