    Is Reboot necessary to complete the whole procedure?

    I needed a reboot before the log got created.

    It appears that if you manually create the usermode folder, a reboot is not necessary.

    The DWORD should be 32Bit. A 64Bit didn't work for me although I use a 64Bit W7.

    @EuRo, DWORD is 32bit, a QWORD is 64bit. He said a DWORD.

    I failed to first create the Key "Diagnostics", then you need to create the DWORD subkey in there. The decimal value for 0x3002 is 196610. Lastly, if the "usermode" directory does not exist under c:windowsdebug" you need to create it. You do not need to reboot the system, just need to run gpupdate /force.

    Hopefully, this helps someone! It worked for me.
