How to pester Error Reporting immediately

1. Jetstress or Load Generator would send ‘offline’ Watson reports to the admin queue --- which is located at “ %SystemRoot%\PCHEALTH\ERRORREP\QSignoff”--- you can send them through a file transfer service on your own.

2. The customer uses eventvwr.msc to see the application event generated.

3. The customer makes a note on the bucketing parameters --- P7 has a hash code of stack trace (eb22 in the following image) --- this parameter makes it easier to find this bucket from flooding error reports.

4. The customer logs on as an administrator and deletes a registry value named “LastQueuePesterTime” which is located at [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\PCHealth\ErrorReporting\DW].

6. The customer logs off and then logs on as an administrator.

7. The customer takes a coffee break to see Windows Error Reporting to pop up within 4 minutes (a.k.a. QueuePesterUI).
