Browser apps crash if I try to move their window at all

Description of the issue:

I create an “App” using Settings > More tools > Create Shortcut then check the “Open as window” checkbox. This all works fine, but then if I try to click and drag the title bar of that window to move it anywhere, it just disappears. The app completely crashes, though Brave remains open and functional.

Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3.

  1. Open browser app.
  2. Try to move it by dragging the title bar, or using expose to move the entire window to a new desktop.

Actual Result (gifs and screenshots are welcome!):

It just crashes: closes completely. https://drive.google.com/file/d/12J-uO7B9pGVdiVVF5Z9ev9ojtBNOTtTD/view

Expected result:

It should move like any other window.

Reproduces how often:

Consistently, every single time.

Operating System and Brave Version(See the About Brave page in the main menu):

macOS Catalina 10.15.1 (19B88)
Brave 1.0.1 Chromium: 78.0.3904.108 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Well that’s strange. I uninstalled Chrome and ran some cleanup stuff with CleanMyMac, and now this issue is gone. I’ll probably need to install Chrome again, so here’s hoping it doesn’t bring this back again.
