Hi there. The Watchdog is a great MP feature. It helps me every day to restart MP when hung. But as soon it happens almost every hour, it would be great to set the watchdog to automatically choose option to perform, or better just restart MP and do not gather anything (it's a bit boring to delete tens of ZIPs from desktop every night :)
But I could not find option like that... Any idea how to set it and avoid that hourly exercises? :)
Thanks

    Hi argd

    :eek:

    If you haven't already done so, please report the problems so we can fix them (I've searched your posting history very quickly but I don't see any problem reports). Nobody should have to put up with 10's of crashes every night! :D

    That definitely is not normal, post logs using the forum advanced + feature, upload and attach to post as mm advised.

    just to be clear I have not had MP crash once in 9 months, so there is something drastically wrong.

    Wow, that's amazing, two comments from developers! That's why I like MP, really. Thank you anyway!
    Now, back to the case...
    Actually, I always interpreted a "Report bug" option on a watchdog pop-up as an action that automatically submit those reports to developers - sorry, my bad :)
    So, should I upload ZIP right here or better open a separate thread for that, with some details (yes, I know how to recreate the issue, it is specific to an action).

    Anyway, that would be a good option for watchdog, to always choose one of the option, let say "full log", go to background for datacollection and just restart the MP...

    I don't mind if you upload it here... but whatever you do, don't forget about this because we want to fix the problem! :D
