    'rounded corners' was copied from this atlas - http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/170233-aero-glass-themeatlas/page-6#entry1096342

    I love Windows 7 looks. I'm curious is there any difference to this compared to your first one you released over a month ago. Also is it possible to make the round corners the same size as Windows 7 or is that not possible.

     

    The main difference I can see from before to now is that with hockninc's rounded W7 atlas he added a border margin next to the [X] in keeping more with the Windows 7 look, like Noel I also doubt the rounded corners can be tweaked much more.

    Is there a way to keep task-bar transparent permanently? because for some reason the transparency in task-bar disappears and taskbarblur.cmd has to be restarted again. I will try the more recent TaskbarBlur.vbs option by adding it in the startup.

    This Windows 10 tweaker over at Yamicsoft looks interesting may give it a try.

    Aero Glass for Win8.1+ 1.3.1

    I did that and ran AeroHost but I still do not seem to have the glass effect. http://puu.sh/gN2Vn/bb5e05314e.png

    You can't run the aerohost.exe manually so just download this ScheduleTask.bat file that I mentioned earlier and add it to your AeroGlass folder, right click and run as admin then Should automatically launch aerohost and Acitivate AeroGlass for you. This manual install method for AG is a great option especially when having installer issues with the .exe like you are having. Just keep in mind that you also will have to uninstall manually as well, ie remove AG task from Task Scheduler along with the folder.

     
    P.S. If you have not donated as of yet you will get the key popup and desktop AG watermark.

    I downloaded the Windows 8.1 version. I made sure.

    why don't you just download the separate installs either 32 or 64-bit depending on your os then created a AeroGlass folder for your system drive for them then run from there. BigMuscle also has a Schedule.bat file if you want to add to task scheduler as well.

    ~DP

     

    Wait, I am really stupid, where do I make this folder?

     

    For the Non-installer your will need to manually create a folder called AeroGlass to your systemdrive then copy the downloaded files into it.

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\DWM]"CustomThemeAtlas"="C:\\AeroGlass\\Atlas\\1_Win7_Rd_10041.png"

    What is a theme atlas? 

    1. Read here about the Atlas => http://www.glass8.eu/guide.html
    2  You will need a .png atlas file for correct build and theme
    3. Then add to registry to activate, like this reg example above.

    I HAD to delete in safe mode because my whole freaking screen went black!   :thumbdown

    Well I Always have a Tri-boot system on my Test-PC with Windows 7, 8.1 and the build flavor of the month but also I Always set a System Restore Point with doing any Testing which helps keep me out of hot water.

    Unfortunately Windows 10 beta builds do not offer any taskbar blur-transparency, and even when you do get it to work

    with Big Muscle's 'SetWindowCompositionAttribute' file it won't 'stick' when changing themes, refreshing desktop etc.

    Anyway to avoid some of this I included a 'registry add file' that will 'kick start' blur automatically everytime you bootup or log on along with a 'Taskbar_blur shortcut file' that you can pin to your taskbar for quick access to launch the blur-transparency manually.

    Enjoy ~DP

    Found this .reg file on another forum but can not confirm or deny if it works, but may worth a shot for all you One Drive haters.

    If you WANT to get the non-debug to work here is what I did after some testing  on Tuesday when Build 10041 was first released.

     

    1. You should only have 7 installer files present (debug.log will be added after launching) 

       (see screen shot with file sizes)

    2. If you have already installed AeroGlass and its NOT working then Uninstall it from Task Scheduler then use the Uninstaller for AeroGlass

       and Remove the AeroGlass folder for any left over orphan files. (I have already posted a batch file to stop then remove AeroGlass from Task Scheduler)

    3. Now Reinstall (without Atlas) reboot and it should WORK now.

     

    NOTE: You will get 2 pop-ups at every logon or reboot one for a compatibility issue with DWM and the other with your Key file, just close those out.

          If you WANT to enable Transparency in your taskbar use the SetWindowCompositionAttribute file along with the batch or the  vbs file that

          has been posted. You can also add the Atlas .png file that Noel has posted for build 10041 and UxThemeSignatureBypass dll files if using a custom theme.

    @Daveeo, Thats why I asked you to post a screen shot as I could see a issue with your key from your debug.log I posted eariler that the donation.key file causes the issue, so anyone else just remove it and you will just have to deal with the key pop-up til BigMuscle does an update.

    ~DP

     

    Your pic is so blurry I can not tell when size files you have but you don't need the symbols folder or the donation.key so just remove them and reboot.
