3. Create the registry key LocalDumps if it is not present already.
4. Create a new "expandable string value " (REG_EXPAND_SZ) and named it DumpFolder
5. Double click on the "DumpFolder " value and enter the following string for the "value data": %LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps
6. Wait for the crash to happen and once then grab the parity .dmp files from the path %LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps

Additional Notes

If the parity .dmp files are missing in %LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashDumps,please look for them in the following path C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\CrashDumps
