      ---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
      import javax.swing.JFileChooser;
      import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;

      public class Test
      {
         public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
         {
            SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable()
            {
               @Override
               public void run()
               {
                  JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser();
                  fileChooser.showOpenDialog(null);
               }
            });
         }
      }

      ---------- END SOURCE ----------

      CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
      The issue has not occurred when running JRE 1.8.0_271 or earlier, but I could be wrong.
