Brave crashes when I try applying a theme or enabling vertical tabs

Description of the issue:
Brave crashes when I try to apply a theme while vertical tabs is enabled or crashes when I have an unverified theme applied and I try to enable vertical tabs

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Enable vertical tabs in the settings, then go to chrome webstore and apply any unverified theme
  2. Apply any unverified theme, then enable vertical tabs in the settings

Expected result:
Apply both vertical tabs and an unverified theme without crashing

Brave Version( check About Brave):
-1.59.117 Chromium: 118.0.5993.70 (Official Build) (64-bit)
(happens on beta too (1.60.88))
-Windows 10 22H2 (OS Build 19045.3570)

Additional Information:
-Unverified is for developers not verified in the webstore
-Between August 3 and 6 (2023) I was able to enable both, but now I can’t
(I’m still trying to use the same theme from before: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/galaxy-aero-1440p/baobdjafbehnhgceapbejnfcfebhoafb)
-I had no problems until earlier when I deleted my default folder (Can’t recover) so I had to apply all my settings from before
-I’m not sure if some verified themes crash as well but so far I have not seen one
-I’m also not sure if every unverified theme crashes but every one I have tried has

@FITB you may want to check Brave crashes immediately upon startup - #38 by clifton
