How to prevent "Program has stopped working" dialog when calling an .exe from Powershell
I hate to do this, answering my own question, but I've found a workaround for now.
Before the loop:
# Disable WER temporarilySet-ItemProperty "HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting" -Name DontShowUI -Value 1After the loop:
# Reset the WER UI reg keySet-ItemProperty "HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting" -Name DontShowUI -Value 0This will be improved by calling this script from another script:
- Get the current value of the key(s) to be modified
- Change them
- Call the script which returns control to the caller even if it crashes
- Return the reg keys to their original value
