An Update..

 

So I did a fresh install in my search to find what was going wrong..

 

Turns out windows is updating 2 files..dwmcore.dll and uDWM.dll I copied the 2 files in question from a fresh install to my current OS and SUCCESS yeeeha feelz good! beer to Noel :)

 

Would somebody please take a look at their own files and tell me what versions they have ?

I'm bit on the slow side ...

 

I'm too having the pop up message about DWM been incompatible with aero glass.  Aero somewhat works ok with only some window headers flashing transparent and non transparent randomly.  Other than that everything seems fine.

 

Do the above posts mean I have to find older versions of dwmcore.dll and uDWM.dll and replace the current ones so aero glass can work correctly again?

I have the same issue at work pc. I removed two latest Windows updates and it started to work fine again.

@George-Z

I also had the same error. I uninstalled Aero Glass, rebooted then renamed the aero folder, in my case c:\aeroglass to 1aeroglass. Rebooted again, then reinstalled Aero Glass then the error stopped.

Try that in case it works for you.

Then you can delete the old Aero Glass folder providing if you have a donation key, you've copied that to the new install folder.

Nope, you just need to update the symbols. Donated version does it automatically, otherwise you must help on your own, it has been discussed many times in this topic.

In my case symbols were updated, but only updates removal helped.

I never had to do anything special; I've kept up with updates and the (donation key-activated) Aero Glass for Win 8.1 product just downloads the symbols itself from Microsoft online and works.

Installed Aero Glass for Windows 8.1 V1.2.5 yesterday. I've rebooted several times since then, but just now when I rebooted I had this Command Prompt window on the Desktop and it would not go away by itself, I had to close it.

Why am I getting this and what am I supposed to do with or about it?

This is correct behaviour. Symbols were downloaded and window stays opened until you close it - just to inform you that something happened. Next time, it will open only when symbols need to be downloaded again.

This is wrong behaviour which should not happen and if it is bug then it should be fixed. However, the most common reason is that user installed some 3d party tweaks in the past, so symbols are downloaded but they cannot be stored/loaded etc. It is important to know that Aero Glass folder must be writable by Everyone (or at least by Windows Manager group). Also, dbghelp.dll and symsrv.dll files must be present in this folder.

 

The another reason for "DWM incompatibility error" is that donation key is not present in Aero Glass folder, e.g. Jonny5isalivetm's log:

 

[2014-09-18 03:23:39][0xFE8:0x858] Donation key not loaded (2 - The system cannot find the file specified.)

...

[2014-09-18 03:23:39][0xFE8:0xCEC] DWM incompatibility error 0x4

 

 

-------------------

And the last one, there are also some users who complain that my application is buggy because their cracked version does not download symbols correctly:

 

I'm glad I tired the cracked version 1st because I now see its not worth donating too. After windows update it broke it...

Well, I find this understandable :yes:, the guy that cracked it somehow lost credibility all of a sudden and they are frustrated by this. :whistle:

The most funny thing is that it was me who stated the following as a reaction to the crack:

 

 

when new incompatible Windows update is released, you will be the first one who starts crying that he needs a new crack

 

I advise you to use the crack and then come back later and complain and complain again that your cracked version does not work on updated OS.

I will put this info on the first page.
