The root cause is that argv isn't a first-class citizen like on linux, but an abstraction. The kernel only cares about a single string argument. If you use main instead of WinMain, the CRT will transform the single string into an argv

All java applications refuse to render without said workaround, because AWT expects the WM to reparent its windows. This is IMO a bug in the JRE, because there is no requirement for the WM to reparent. I use steam on dwm without the steam p
