Re: #15384
Basically, when we close a
DesktopWindowXamlSource
, it calls toWindows_UI_Xaml!DirectUI::MetadataAPI::Reset
, which resets the XAML metadata provider for the process. So, closing one DWXS on one thread will force an A/V next time another thread tries to do something like... display a tooltip. Not immediately, but surely soon enough.This was fixed in Windows 11 by os.2020!5837001. That wasn't backported to Windows 10.
This will cause a ~15MB memory leak PER WINDOW. OBVIOUSLY, this is bad, but it's less bad than crashing.
We're gonna keep using #15384 for other ideas here too.
