I haven't been able to find the source of a crash we've been having in Debug in both 2454 and 2526 branches.

The app crashes with the call to CefShutdown();

It's only happening in Debug mode. has anyone else seen anything like this or could point me in a certain direction?

I was hoping it was related to http://www.magpcss.org/ceforum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=12089
but I now have the 2526.1361 integrated and still see the issue. also note, my stacktrace is not the same as what the sample app was generating.
I am adding the "disable-extensions" flag to the command line arguments.

its an MFC MDI application with a single browser window opening.
Running VS2013
The crash does not occur in Release mode. It also runs fine in Debug if settings.single_process = true; however, numerous threads on here stress that single_process mode should not be used for production.

You're likely hitting this DCHECK: https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... ain.cc-185

If you move past that DCHECK using a debugger are you hitting any other DCHECKs during shutdown? You need to make sure that all CefRequestContext and related object references are released before calling CefShutdown.
