Dump files are created when an application crashes and creates an exception code. The dump file states at what line or area of memory the program crashed at and is used for troubleshooting the direct cause of the application exception. Windows blue screen of deaths create dump files by default as a .dmp file.
When viewing a dump file, you can look at the area of memory/line that caused exception and use it to research a fix for that specific error or possibly submit it to the company/programmer of the application to help track down a fix or debug the program
