SUMMARY
=======
The description of the SetErrorMode() API does not list the flag to reset the
default behavior of Windows; that is, to display all the error message boxes.
MORE INFORMATION
================
On page 840, the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) "Programmer's
Reference, Volume 2: Functions" manual for version 3.1 lists the following three
flags for the SetErrorMode function:
SEM_FAILCRITICALERRORS
SEM_NOGPFAULTERRORBOX
SEM_NOOPENFILEERRORBOX
These flags can be combined to prevent the display of message boxes for critical
error faults, general protection (GP) faults, and file-not-found errors,
respectively. However, the SetErrorMode() API description doesn't list the
default flag that is used to display all the error message boxes.
To allow the SetErrorMode() API to display all error message boxes, pass a zero
as the fuErrorMode parameter.
