When a child window of the main window is created in a separate UI thread
and the child window has the WS_SYSMENU style, when you switch to the child
window's system menu by pressing the right arrow, the system stops
responding and, eventually, after switching between other applications, the
following blue screen STOP message may occur:
STOP: 0x0000001E (0xC0000005, 0xA000E0DC, 0x00000001, 0x000000E4)
KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
win32k.sys
For example, if an MDI child window is running on a separate thread and you
select a menu item, such as the File menu, and then press the right arrow
key, the frame or application's system menu will appear (that is, where you
move, size, minimize, maximize, and so on). If you press the right arrow
key again, the child window's system menu will appear. After you arrow
down, the menu items are not highlighted as expected. When you switch
(press ALT+TAB) to another application, the system menu remains on top and
does not redraw properly.
