Posted by jpluimers on 2020/10/19

Short answer based on WayBack macos – Bring OS X Error Message window to the front – Super User

The GUI way

  1. Press Command+Space to start Spotlight Search
  2. Search for /System/Library/CoreServices/Problem Reporter.app and wait for the result to show up
    (a search for just Problem Reporter.app will not reveal it!)
  3. Press Enter
  4. Now the System Reporter windows is in the front and has focus

The Terminal way

  1. Open a Terminal window or tab
  2. Run open -a /System/Library/CoreServices/Problem\ Reporter.app
  3. Now the “Problem Reporter” windows is in the front and has focus
