SP 52442: Disable “Error Reporting Service” to improve system performance

Symptom: When you start the Services applet in “Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools”, the “Startup Type” setting for the “Error Reporting Service” may be set to “Automatic” or “Manual”.
Resolution: Modify the system registry settings to disable the “Error Reporting Service” in Windows.
Additional Information: The “Error Reporting Service” is provided by Windows support for sending all information on your system when you get an error while working in one of your applications. For most systems, it is a waste of memory and resource to allow error reporting for services and applications running in non-standard environments.
