How to Read DMP
A dump file (DMP) is created whenever an application crashes on a PC computer. The DMP file contains information regarding the reason for the crash, along with any other software or hardware errors your computer may be experiencing. The Debugging Tools for Windows (WinDbg) is a collection of tools available from Microsoft that allows you to read DMP files.
