Are there any equivalent of mac OS crash dumps in Windows world? In case of SIGSEGV on macOS I can take process dump from ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports and using atos tool I can get exact place of all addresses from crash dump in my source code.
I wonder is there similar functionality available on Windows?
What is general approach to anaysing memory access violation on Windows?
I know there is a SetUnhandledExceptionFilter function to handle unhandled exceptions , similar to sighandler_t signal(int signum, sighandler_t handler); in macOS world . So I can handle it using custom handle and log my process state .
SetUnhandledExceptionFilter documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/errhandlingapi/nf-errhandlingapi-setunhandledexceptionfilter
However ideally I would like to find similar to macOS crash dumps functionality.

There is no completely same functionality, but there is something even better: full process memory dump. However, unlike on macOS, you need to manually setup the system to collect the one for you: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/wer/collecting-user-mode-dumps
The thing you get would be not a text file, but a binary one, you will need a tool to analyze it. Usually it is a WinDBG. You should get know how to work with it:
