NoelC Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Just my 2 cents but a uninstaller would have been a nice feature and should be easy to add...Here's a registry file that will unload Aero Glass for Win8. After running it, log out then back in again and Aero Glass for Win8 will not start.Click HereIf you'd rather not trust the file, this is what's in the above:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows]"LoadAppInit_DLLs"=dword:00000000"AppInit_DLLs"="""RequireSignedAppInit_DLLs"=[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM]"CustomThemeResource"=-Noel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DimasKid Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 The installer will directly install the DWMGlass.dll and .pdb to the system directory. I think this is bad (missing write permissions to the log files)oh, i forgotten about the permission Thank's for the info an the suggestion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicAndre1981 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I get some flickering in the TortoiseGit when VS2012 is shown in background. If I minimize the VS2012, the flickering is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DosProbie Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I think the reg entry you have is incorrect with the quote marks and will flash back a error message should have the (-)minus to delete the file like so..Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows]"LoadAppInit_DLLs"=-Just my 2 cents but a uninstaller would have been a nice feature and should be easy to add...Here's a registry file that will unload Aero Glass for Win8.

MagicAndre1981 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 thanks I'll test it now. Btw,can you add proper file version data to the DLL so that we can see which version we currently use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt A. Tobin Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 It is **** impressive work. You have accomplished what Stardock is having issue with and microsoft I bet at times said was impossible. My only issue is that damned demo messagebox. I appreciate that this is a demo and use under my own responsibility but I am getting the box every hour or so.I do want to ask tho i bet it has been asked before. How may I contribute to your efforts and fine work. Also I must report that the dll and glass seem to conflict with Stardock's WindowFX. I am not sure why it should conflict but it sends DWM into a typical crash loop that results in being kicked out of my user session.Peace,Matt A.

Matt A. Tobin Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 I haven't got blur effect only on taskbar. I don't know why. Anyone have this issue?I am getting a blur everywhere except for classicshell but I bet the dwm call is deactivated when running on Windows 8 but I have the blur everywhere else.
