    Description

      Cause of this bug?
      set_focus_window (line ~780) - subsys/win32k/ntuser/window.c
      It crashes on line
      Window->MessageQueue->FocusWindow = New;
      and now you can guess what window doesn't have message queue? Yes, it's the
      desktop one! And how do we got there? It's called from WinPosShowWindow
      function (when submenu of the Start Menu is hidden). It should be fairly
      easy to fix, but I will not do that because there is plan to move desktop
      handling into CSRSS and that will fix this bug in more clever way.
