Enabling MS CRM tracing till 2015 new feature is through Registry keys only. But MS CRM 2015 gives this feature as UI. It is really useful for reading the errors we are getting in Plugins and workflow.

In Registry Editory:
2. HKEY-LOCAL_MACHINE-->SOFTWARE --->Microsoft ---> MS CRM
3. In Right side panel , you can find two DWords called TraceEnabled and TraceRefresh
4. Right click on TraceEnabled DWord ---> Modify ----> Set ValueData to "1" to enable tracing or set ValueData to "0" to disable the Tracing.
5. After you set the value for TraceEnabled, Righ click on TraceRefresh DWord ---> Modify ---> Give any numeric number (Preferably two digit number). TraceEnable will not be reflect until you refresh the tracing through TraceRefresh Dword
If you don't find those DWords in RegistryEditor in given path. then add those DWords
1. Right click on MSCRM ---> New---> DWord(32-bit) value ---> Give name as "TraceEnabled" set Value data as 0.
similary create a DWord for TraceRefresh with data value as any two digit number ex.22
