#dump files

[jezebelgoldstone]

i have the dump file of a tab that had a draft on ao3.

i can find teensy bits of the text in the dump file, but most of it is gibberish. everything i'm finding online is about how to analyze a dump file to debug a program, which is not helpful. i need to, i guess convert the gibberish to normal text? but i don't know how.

please. if anyone has any idea at all how to get a dump file to be readable to a human i cannot tell you how much that would help me. i am like on the verge of tears here.

even if you have no idea - even if you don't care about this at all - please, i beg you, reblog this so hopefully it'll land on the dash of someone who can help.

also yes i know i never should've lost the draft because ao3 isn't built to be the place where you actually write drafts in the first place. i know. i am aware. this was a special circumstance. i do not need advice on how to keep this from happening in the future because trust me, i've made sure it won't

[How To] Skip Scanning Of "Dump Files'' In Disk Cleanup Wizard

This article will help you to remove the dump files in scanning procedure followed by Disk Cleanup utility under Windows.

We all know that Disk Cleanup helps us to remove the unwanted files from Windows drives on our wish. In case of cleanup, Windows follows the manual to remove dump files. So it scans for the dump files, which takes unnecessary delay in making the cleanup of the disk. Here is the screenshot taken while Windows is scanning for dump files:

The issue becomes intricate when we already know that there are no crash files or dump files there to look upon. So we should then make a skip for the scanning of same files. But how to do this? Don’t worry, we’ve a registry trick to fix this problem. Here is how:

Skip Scanning Of “System Error Memory Dump Files”

1. Press  + R and put regedit in Run dialog box to open Registry Editor (If you’re not familiar with Registry Editor, then click here). Click OK.

2. Navigate here:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VolumeCaches

3. In the left pane of this location, under VolumeCaches key, you’ll find System error memory dump files sub-key. Right click on it, and select Export. After successfully exporting the registry file, again do a right click on same sub-key and this time select Delete.

4. Perform step 3 for the sub-key’s named Memory Dump Files and System error minidump files as well in the same location (i.e. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VolumeCaches).

That’s it! Now reboot once, and you’ll be able to skip dump files scanning while using Disk Cleanup. In case you want to scan dump files, then add the registries which we’ve deleted, by the ease of exported registry files.

Hope you like the tip and find it useful…:)
