I already asked MSFT and they don't want to provide a way to disable it.

you can get an ISO with your key: http://pureinfotech.com/2013/10/19/download-windows-81-iso-using-windows-8-product-key/ and run setup.exe inside WIn8 and select upgrade to go from 8 to 8.1

CreatePrimaryTerminal takes too much time: //*************************************************************//// CreatePrimaryTerminal()//// Purpose: Creates the primary terminal//// Parameters: void//// Return: TRUE if successful// FALSE if an error occurs////************************************************************* Capture a boot log from Process Monitor and upload this file, too.

you can delete them with the disk cleanup wizard.

how can we export the Settings to apply them on a 2nd PC?

8.1 is a NEW Windows, not a MSU update like other Windows updates. You can download the ISO with this tool: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only

Do you see a DMP file after the rollback?

is it also compatible with 8.1?

updates are language independent since Vista.

strange. RegSetValue calls have all SUCCESS as result. StartScreenColorTuner.exe RegSetValue HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Accent\AccentColor SUCCESS hb860 should look at this. I can't help here.

sorry, haven't looked at your link because your other links suggested ugly 3rd party tools.

there is a new tool: http://winaero.com/comment.php?comment.news.216

don't use the Tweaker any longer. The the final here: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/163725-aero-glass-for-win8-12/

this caused by the patching: C:\Users\André>err 0x80070241# as an HRESULT: Severity: FAILURE (1), FACILITY_WIN32 (0x7), Code 0x241# for hex 0x241 / decimal 577 ERROR_INVALID_IMAGE_HASH winerror.h# Windows cannot verify the digital signature for this file.# A recent hardware or software change might have installed a# file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might# be malicious software from an unknown source.# 1 matches found for "0x80070241"this breaks the digital signature.

this is only an information. It only shows that hotpatching doesn't work. MS doesn't use this feature very often.

run defrag C: /A, this should show you if Windows thinks it needs defragmentation.

Have you tried to hide them? Does this fix it?

you should only put it into the Aero folder. After I did this I never got any popup again.

this is a 64bit explorer, which can't be added there. have you calculated the Experience score? Try to remove the games The Witcher 2 - Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition and HL2. Those are the 2 last strings I see in the stack while the crash happens. Maybe one of the tool has an incorrect WEI score requirement which causes the crash.

for me it is the opposite. squared corners and the removed shadows makes it much more elegant

Yes, the trace shows the GP client/gpscript as cause: - <groupPolicy> <process name="gpscript.exe" pid="4768" startTime="25673" endTime="60349" duration="34676" localLowPriCPUTime="0" localRegPriCPUTime="55" localLowPriDiskBytes="0" localRegPriDiskBytes="838144" /> <process name="gpscript.exe" pid="4292" startTime="66468" endTime="66525" duration="57" localLowPriCPUTime="0" localRegPriCPUTime="23" localLowPriDiskBytes="0" localRegPriDiskBytes="1054720" /> </groupPolicy>I have no experience with GP so I can't help.

yes, I like square much more.

zip and uplaod the ETL file, I'll take a look at it.

I have no real idea

I see a lot of this: [0xB50] Failed to load custom theme file (0x2) 0x2 = file not found
