How did you search?

(maybe the indexing or labeling can be improved -- but, e.g., when I search on "crash" alone in the online help, Error Report Tool is the first item that appears; when I enter "crash" into the index search, it is the only item that is returned).

and as asked in comment 2

an updated help page

Attached is a first draft to modify the existing page on Crash Reporter.
I think the lines marked in "green highlighting" also need to be deleted.
Are there other changes needed?
