--- Comment #25 from Anastasius Focht <focht at gmx.net> ---
Hello folks,

revisiting, still present.

'Sky Go app' (Electron based app) from bug 48578 exhibits a specific crash
pattern because of this, after dismissing the Aero theme error dialog. I'm
putting it here for documentation.

Due to DWM API failure, different code paths are taken which later leads to the
main thread not becoming the browser message processing thread in the browser
process, hence the assert() is triggered.
