Description

Whenever I try to use the window_manager package, the app crashes as soon as I try to interact with the main window after closing a child window. Both in debug and release mode.

I'm using Flutter 3.3.8 stable.

I attached the minimal code to reproduce:
window_manager_crash.zip

Research direction

Start with the attached window_manager_crash.zip minimal reproduction and reproduce the failure on Windows 10 with Flutter 3.3.8 stable. Trace the behavior after closing the child window and interacting with the main window; done means the app remains usable in both debug and release modes.
