VST causing crash but no minidump is created.

[Steve Harder]

I have a vst that I can consistently cause to crash Cakewalk by replicating keystrokes and clicks.  Cakewalk crashes, it disappears from Task Manager processes list.  I can then restart Cakewalk and it performs normally. 

So this is a crash, not a hang. 

Cakewalk does not create a minidump in either %AppData%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\Minidumps or %AppData%\Cakewalk\Cakewalk Core\Minidumps\Plugins.

I'm communicating with vst developer.  But I'd like to provide him with as much info as I can. 

Is there a Cakewalk config that will increase the possibility of a minidump being created?
