To disable Dr. Watson completely
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AeDebug
set the string value
Auto="0"
and possibly change the 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\Microsoft\DrWatson
"VisualNotification"=dword:00000000
