As I stated below, I now have a strong suspicion that the culprit is Visual Studio 2012. I use it every day, and have seen it freezing up, or requesting to be restarted (because of memory problems). It has to be VS!

I am running Win 10, but that is not the issue. My wife has an almost identical computer with the exact same version of 10 as I have, and she never sees this happening.

In a way it may be an issue. I suspect that something you have installed frequently crashes and Windows must recover. Instead of bringing this to your attention, it may be sweeping the whole thing under the rug. Have you noticed anything else, like any unusual activity for a short time?
Anyway, first we must find out what's going wrong. Have you found anything in the logs?

Quote: Have you noticed anything else No, not a thing. I run very few apps: Office 2010, Adobe Photoshop CS2, Visual Studio 2012 (VS often tells me it has to shut down because it's out of memory. My machine has 32GB RAM. Could this be the issue? I wonder.) and Macrium's Reflect for creating system's images. (Could Reflect cause memory dumps when it creates an image? I wonder. I can test for that.)
[Edit]:
Now that I think about it, the only app I run that does crash from time to time, is Visual Studio 2012. I see VS freezes and pop-up windows telling me to restart. It must be VS! I will check for memory dumps in future, when VS crashes.

I have not experience crashes of any nature. Your tip about the event logs is good advice, thanks!

Are you using a free version of the software, and this is a way to trick you into upgrading to the paid version? I get similar alerts from my Avast anti-virus software.

It is not the software. My wife runs the same software on her machine with the same Win 10 version as I, and she never sees this happening.

You must be on a slow Internet connection, so winio is storing all your data to upload to ms later.

Are you sure they're new memory dumps, and it's not CCleaner failing to delete them, and then offering to do it all over again every day?
Launch "View Reliability History" from Control Panel--or just start typing "reliability" from the Start menu.
This is one of those utilities most people forget about. It can display a fairly nice summary of what's been going on lately, and would tell you at a glance whether something's really been failing daily.

She was married three times, and her second husband Grant Tinker, died this past Monday.
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

According to Wikipedia, Tinker passed away Nov 28, 2016. Which was a Monday, just not last Monday.

Neither.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Wroooong! This is fake news and name calling designed to spread lies and demoralization. The alternative fact is that it is not even called Death Star, but Battle Station. It is all lies of the rebel media. Sad!

Indeed! There is evidence[^] that it was not destroyed at all. It is a little battered and has been parked in orbit around Saturn.

IF you'd been paying attention at 01:02:37 you would know the equator of the Death Star was the location for the landing bays. I thought everyone knew that.
