Specifies the location of the recovery log file. If the system stops abnormally, and the value CrashDumpEnabled is 1, Windows 2000 copies the contents of system memory to the recovery log file.
If you change the value of this entry, Windows 2000 does not move any existing recovery log files. Instead, the next time the system stops abnormally, it creates a recovery log file in the new location.
This entry stores the value in box below the Write debugging information to check box in System in Control Panel.
To change the value of this entry, use System in Control Panel. Click the Advanced tab, then click the Startup and Recovery button. Enter the location of the log file in the text box below the Write debugging information to check box.
To make changes to this value effective, you must restart Windows 2000.
Note
To change the value of this entry, you must be an administrator of the computer.
