Hi , I have a java application which get data from a Windows
executable to get data. In order to prevent the service interrupt for
some reason my java application will detect if the process exit and
restart the Windows executable if it is terminated.

However, I just found that if the exe crashed, rather than it just
restart. Windows will display an alarm box to ask if user like to open
debugger to debug or not, if there is no user to handle the dialog the
process will not restart.

Does anyone know how to bypass this dialog completely?

To disable the good Dr. Watson completely.

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Window*s NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug
set the Reg_Sz string value
Auto="0"
and possibly change the Reg_Sz string for
Debugger="drwtsn32 -p %ld -e %ld -g"
to
Debugger=""

If you later change your mind, from the "Run" box
drwtsn32 -i

Else if you just want no notification, from the run box;
drwtsn32
then uncheck the box for "Visual Notification"

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mi*crosoft\DrWatson
"VisualNotification"=dword:000*00000
