Enabling and disabling protection of dump files and trace files
Dump files and trace files contain information about the operating system, and may also contain user data. To prevent unauthorized access to such data, you can enable protection of dump files and trace files.
If protection of dump files and trace files is enabled, the files can be accessed by the following users:
Dump files can be accessed by the system administrator and local administrator, and by the user that enabled the writing of dump files and trace files.
Trace files can be accessed only by the system administrator and local administrator.
To enable or disable protection of dump files and trace files:
In the main application window, click the Settings button.
In the left part, select Application Settings in the General Settings section.
The application settings are displayed in the right part of the window.
In the Debug information section, click the Settings button.
The Debug information window opens.
Do one of the following:
Select the Enable dump and trace files protection check box if you want to enable protection.
