Not My Fault is a utility designed for advanced users who want to simulate system crashes to test out the capabilities of their apps or retrieve a log that can provide more details about unexpected errors.

The highlight of the application stems from the numerous methods it provides you to hang or crash your operating system directly. Depending on the project you are working on, you can simulate a High IRQL fault in user or Kernel mode, stack or buffer overflow, hardcoded beakpoint, double free or stack trash.

It is important to note that you should use the code overwrite crash option with caution, particularly because there is a chance that the corrupted memory can be written to disk and hence, lead to lossing data.

In the eventuality that you are interested in testing out an SDK or a system tweak or cleaning application, then you can employ the hang and leak mode to determine the strength of your code. To be more precise, you can freeze the OS or system via DPC or, if you prefer to keep the program opened during the testing phase, you can choose Deadlock or Hanging with IRP.

The utility can also help you simulate leaks of paged and nonpaged pool memory, a test that can help you identify potential errors that can lead to unexpected crashes. You should know that the app permits you to set the parameters for the leak, an option that can be useful for stressing out an application.

On the other hand, you should keep in mind that the app does not include any warning system and the simulation takes place immediately. Consequentially, make sure you closed all essential utensils and that you save your work before proceeding.

If you are looking for an easy-to-use utility that enables you to simulate crashes and freezes for your operating system or an app you are working on, then perhaps Not My Fault could come in handy.
