Dreamweaver01 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 BigMuscle:I just used your DLL tool to bypass UXTheme signature verification and it's notworking in Win10 build 9860 with AeroGlass (Win10 9600_9860pre-1414186123) and a third party theme. Yes confirmed with Build 9860 it does nothing. I spent several hours on finding the problem and the only difference is that CRYPTSP.DLL (used for theme signature verification) is now delay-loaded library. My code does not handle this correctly - or better, it is able to hook delayed imports but hooked IAT is restored by delayLoadHelper when the library is called for the first time. I will try to find some proper solution but it may take some time. Thanks, BigMuscle for looking into this.I'm sorry you didn't find a solution, but if there is one, I'm sure you'll find it.

Dreamweaver01 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Conventional patchers also break system protection as well, rendering them unacceptable to people who would like to keep their systems sane and sound for the long term. Big Muscle's approach where the software works at run-time and even tries to automatic follow Microsoft's updates (thinking of how Aero Glass works with the symbol servers) is the only one that's even remotely acceptable. -NoelYes, that's correct, but nothing's perfect.With BigMuscle's method, you have to turn off secure boot which could also be harmful.But it's still a better option than a patcher, imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelC Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 For those testing the 1.2.6 beta with Windows 10 build 9860, I have updated my "faux borders" theme atlas file a little bit, to try to make the edges seem a bit more clean against both light and dark backgrounds, and to darken the inactive window title bars a little (this may need changing again after Big Muscle's next release). http://Noel.ProDigitalSoftware.com/ForumPosts/Win10/FauxBordersRoundedCorners.png Here are the colors it seems to work best with: -Noel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoelC Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 FYI, I saw no impact at all on Aero Glass for Win 8.1 after the November Update Tuesday installation of 18 Windows Updates. -Noel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelC Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Win 10 build 9879 symbols don't appear to be online yet. I'll keep checking from time to time. -Noel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My1 Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 (edited) but just a question, can the symvols not be directly fetched from the system? if it would be possible it would make things easier. but I seriously wanna test this (while staying on 9840 or whatever it was, lets say preview version 2, or short p2) but BMs requirement is kinda like a chicken and egg like thing, I mean the requirement is to feedback in the dev stage, but without being able to use it you cannot givee feedback. also even the "stable" build is "highly experimental and could break with any update" according to BM, so I dont see the point in limiting the testers...
