Description

This policy setting determines whether Windows Error Reporting (WER) checks if the computer is running on battery power. By default, when a computer is running on battery power, WER only checks for solutions, but does not upload additional report data until the computer is connected to a more permanent power source.

If you enable this policy setting, WER does not determine whether the computer is running on battery power, but checks for solutions and uploads report data normally.

If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, WER checks for solutions while a computer is running on battery power, but does not upload report data until the computer is connected to a more permanent power source.
