Abstract
Individual bug fixed messages for software users that includes determining an occurrence of an error in software executing on a user processor. A unique error report identifier is stored in a memory accessible by the user processor and the error is reported. The reporting includes transmitting the unique error report identifier and error data that describes the error to a developer server. The error data is analyzed to determine a fix to correct the error. A message regarding the fix to correct the error is stored in a fixed error database. The software is launched and it is determined that the error was previously reported. The fixed error database is queried by the software with the unique error report identifier to locate the message. Based on locating the message, the message is downloaded and displayed by the user processor.
