+# Incorrect usage of DynamicResource causes application crash
+
+Beginning with .NET 10 Preview 4, applications using `DynamicResource` incorrectly now crash at runtime.
+
+## Version introduced
+
+.NET 10 Preview 4
+
+## Previous behavior
+
+Applications that incorrectly initialized `DynamicResource` would continue running without crashing. The values would fall back to defaults, and an `InvalidOperationException` would appear in the output.
+
+## New behavior
+
+Applications now crash with an error similar to the following:
+
+```output
+System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException: Set property 'System.Windows.ResourceDictionary.Source' threw an exception.
+```
+
+This occurs when an incorrect resource type is used with `DynamicResource`. For example, the code snippet below causes a crash because a `SolidColorBrush` is used instead of `System.Windows.Media.Color`:
+
+```xml
+<SolidColorBrush x:Key="RedColorBrush" Color="#FFFF0000" />
+<SolidColorBrush x:Key="ResourceName" Color="{DynamicResource RedColorBrush}" />
+```
+
+## Type of breaking change
+
+This is both a [source-incompatible](../../categories.md#source-compatibility) and [behavioral](../../categories.md#behavioral-change) change.
+
+## Reason for change
+
+This change improves the performance of `DynamicResource` usage. The optimization ensures that incorrect resource initialization is caught immediately, preventing unintended behavior.
+
+## Recommended action
+
+To avoid crashes, ensure that the correct resource types are used with `DynamicResource`. For example, the following code resolves the issue by using `System.Windows.Media.Color` instead of `SolidColorBrush`:
+
+```xml
+<Color x:Key="RedColor">#FFFF0000</Color>
+<SolidColorBrush x:Key="ResourceName" Color="{DynamicResource RedColor}" />
+```
+
+## Affected APIs
+
+None.
