Windows 10 BSOD with SSD: No mini dump files created!

Dear Microsoft Community,

No mini dump files are being created on my Windows 10 SSD laptop, when I get a Blue Screen Of Death (BSOD). I get these sometimes each day, sometimes once a week.

I've configured the Minidump files in the correct way (as described here), what else could I do except totally wiping Windows from my laptop and reinstalling it?

Your input would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Max de Feber

Answer
For dumps to be produced. . .

▪ Page file must be on OS drive
*If manually set Page file base allocation size must be > than installed physical RAM
*Windows Error Reporting (WER) system service should be set to MANUAL
*PREFERRED>>>Set page file to system managed on the OS drive
*Set system crash/recovery options to "kernel Memory Dump"
*User account control must be running.
* Sometimes SSD drives with older firmware do not create DMPS (update firmware)
*Cleaner applications like Ccleaner delete DMP files so dont run them until you are fixed.
