One of the top crashers from WER on 68.0.3440.75 is:

C:\b\c\b\win64_clang\src\components\crash\content\app\crashpad_win.cc(77)
SrcSrv Command: 
(00007ffd`aaa8d7d3)   chrome_elf!crash_reporter::internal::PlatformCrashpadInitialization+0x855

https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/68.0.3440.25/components/crash/content/app/crashpad_win.cc#77

    base::string16 metrics_path_str;
    if (crash_reporter_client->GetCrashMetricsLocation(&metrics_path_str)) {
      metrics_path = base::FilePath(metrics_path_str);
      CHECK(base::CreateDirectoryAndGetError(metrics_path, nullptr));  <---
    }

Seems to be hitting on all Windows versions 6.1, 6.3, 10.0.

There is no further information available from WER.

Since this CHECK is hitting, it's causing crashpad to never initialize and thus never gather crashes. Can it be softened, maybe to get more information about what is causing this error?
