High CPU on Windows upon crash when not starting crash reporter #20233

@bpasero

Description

@bpasero

This is a regression from 4.x as far as I can tell.

Steps:

  • git clone https://github.com/bpasero/electron-crashreporter
  • yarn
  • open constants.js and configure:
    • enableCrashReporter: false
    • crashMain (or renderer, or child process): true
    • tmpDir: some location that exists
  • yarn start

=> 🐛 the process that crashes goes to 100% CPU and does not terminate. My feeling is that this is a regression from adopting crashpad for Windows.

This is a blocker for shipping E6 for VSCode.
