.MDMP File

The mdmp file extension is mainly known to be associated with Microsoft Windows and used for so called dump files. Some Windows applications can produce user-mode minidump files, which contain a useful subset of the information contained in a crash dump file. Applications can create minidump files very quickly and efficiently.

Because minidump files are small, they can be easily sent over the internet to technical support for the application. A minidump file does not contain as much information as a full crash dump file, but it contains enough information to perform basic debugging operations. To read a minidump file, you must have the binaries and symbol files available for the debugger.

Current versions of Microsoft Office and Microsoft Windows create minidump files for the purpose of analyzing failures on customers' computers.

Some 3rd party programs may also generate minidump files whenever they crash or encounter some error.

Files with mdmp file extension can be usually found as so called minidump files generated by Windows apps or software. These are used for diagnostic of program errors and failures.

How to open:

Specialized tools can be used to analyze memory dumps, however these tools are not for the common user.

How to convert:

Minidumps are not meant to be converted to anything else, just analyzed for the purpose of solving bugs and errors.
