Hello Marcellino. Wermgr.exe (Windows Error Reporting Manager) is a process that runs on the Windows Operating System. It runs all processes related to the Windows Error Reporting system. Wermgr.exe logs details about the computer’s current configurations whenever a process fails to work properly or has to close.
When a problem occurs, Wermgr.exe displays a message explaining the situation and sends a report to Microsoft that contains the information it has logged recently in order for Microsoft to prevent similar situations from recurring.

Wermgr.exe is not known to be a harmful program, but it uses a large amount of CPU memory. This is because Wermgr.exe is usually running during times when the computer is already stressed for resources due to problems with a particular process. Additionally, Wermgr.exe must collect information that it stored and other information from the computer and compile a formal report, which tends to use large amounts of memory.
