There is no minimum donation to receive the license. You donate to support the development and not to buy/receive any license. Donation keys are only a gift for your donation. If you want to donate only to receive license, then please do not do it.

Sorry if I did not post what I think, I'll rewrite:

I want to make a donation to support developers and at the same time to have a license.

Oh you can ask me, but why?

Why besides supporting developers want to have something complete.

Do not have a way to write the way I think, I know how is the job for you, also have a "work" in this area, but other than that you develop for Windows I develop for Android.

I know that my answer was not what you expected. But simple answer could also be "donate how much you value it" :yes: all other information is already written on my website.

srka: although I don't know your system, I just guess you should install the latest Windows updates. The other users with this problem just had old version of dwmcore.dll and update should solve it.

Why is it when i restart computer i get a black rectangular box around the glowing text, but when i restart the dwm by the aero glass configurator it shows glowing text without the black box surrounding the text like its supposed to from the start.

Every time i restart comp i have to open the configurator and press apply to remove the black rectangular box

I experienced the same behavior today when I started up my work PC. Killing dwm.exe solved the problem. This didn't happen with RC3.

-deleted the rc3 folder, removed everything from registry, again executed setup - same effect.

-removed everything and extracted files from 7z manually, added task to scheduler - same effect

-installed setup.exe on a clean virtual machine with 8.1 - same effect.

The process works, but probably loads nothing.

PS donation key is present, symbols also

As a matter of fact, i have the same issue. After getting nothing with installer, i just added dll path to AppInit_DLLs again and it works now that way. Tried on two 8.1 x64 editions, on both installer way doesn't work. No log file is generated, aerohost is running, according to task manager.

As i mentioned that before, only for battery mode. Btw, i don't remember having this with early RC versions. Edited by jb3555

This seems very interesting problem, especially when no debug.log is created. Aerohost always logs successes and failures on your dwm.exe process. The only possibility which comes to my mind is that it cannot find dwm.exe process properly. Conditions to detect dwm process are that process must be called "dwm.exe" and it must be child of "winlogon.exe". Could you verify this e.g. with Process Explorer? Also verify that aerohost.exe is running correctly with admin rights and under SYSTEM account.

What I don't understand is that it should log at least "Installing DWM hook..." into debug.log. This sentence is logged everytime aerohost.exe starts. So if there is no debug.log at all, you should verify your system and privileges.

Checked, dwm is running and it is the child of winlogon

13a1558a3190dd178bb4beafbcd9241f.png

The OS has the only account which has administrative rights.

If I revert to rc3 and earlier, everything works correctly. I tried restoring old RC3 folder, then replaced DWMGlass.dll and aerohost.exe in it - same effect, not working and no log is created

add: aerohost is running under SYSTEM account

And there is no debug.log near aerohost.exe? As the host is running, it have to pass over initial log message. If it is not there, it is your privileges. Ensure that read and write privileges to your folder are correct. I just again remind it is not enough that privileges are enabled for your account (or your account has admin rights). It must be for Everyone, because aerohost.exe and dwm.exe runs under different user credentials.

Also, which could help - could you generate minidump for both aerohost.exe and dwm.exe and send them to me? I think that Task Manager should be able to generate it.

Thanks for the new version BM but I have to say I think it's very rude and intrusive to have the watermark remain on a final build, when it was in testing it was acceptable but in the final version this going to feel more like crap-ware and keep most people away from using it, I realize that maybe for some legal reason you are not able to sell your product and this is why you have chosen to call it a donation, but the fact remains, that this is still a paid software if you want it fully unlocked.

Free is free and that means no constant nag screen on every start, no watermark on the desktop, show me any any other free software that does that, if you want to make being a donator (paying for it) worthwhile then make ta basic free version, remove all the other options in the registry to have custom theme atlas and reflections, text glow, etc and make those extra features available only to donators.

Another thing that I think is very bad is the way you force non donators to download the symbols, it shouldn't matter if your a donator or not, your software should at least in a working state after download, automatic symbol downloading should be available for all.

If you look at any other free software that has a paid for counterpart you will see that the free version still works and does what it's advertised to do without needing extra measures from the end user to get it working, you need to make sure that your software is user friendly and at the moment it isn't unless they have a key, so either get rid of the free version all together and only make it work for donators with a key or make both versions user friendly and function but remove the extra features on the free version.

I don't understand a point of these popups at all, as bigmuscle said earlier:

If you want to donate only to receive license, then please do not do it.

So what is the point to show these freaking popups and watermarks? It's no problem for me to donate, but i disagree with all presented limitations, license files and other terms, for example:

Quote

  • You donate to support the development of this software, not to buy this software/license.

I don't want to donate to support development of popup windows, watermarks, dll modifying protection(yeah, i checked, sorry :)), license checking system and other things like that. It can be cracked anyway, so all drm systems are waste of time.

No offense, just an opinion.

I have to agree with MrGRiM and jb3555. The way it's called free on the one hand and how it nags users on the other hand isn't really a great way to "sell" your product. People feel ripped off if they are told it's free but no fun to use until you "donate". They feel forced to do so, which makes the donation not feel like an actual donation. They feel tricked. I think they would not have this kind of attitude towards the software if it would just be called trial version and that you have tobuy a license to unlock it. So it's more a communication problem. If you really want to provide a free version with a donation simply providing a bonus than it should not annoy people with nag screens and watermarks. If you provide a product for free then it has no perceived monetary value. If you then scream "I want money" they think: "What?! For a free product? It's not worth the money." But if you say it's not free but costs 5 dollars, people would think: "Oh, only five dollars, that's okay, I'll buy a license. It's worth the money."

I agree with these three people too. Watermark on the final version? No way. I think this program is gonna be cracked as it was done with Aero Glass for Windows 8.

Since it appears the software is at least a little different than the private RC build I was running before, I'm giving it a try.

I had 4 days without any visual glitches or lockups after removing the RC on the Windows 8.1 stock desktop. 4 miserable days.

Will advise.

-Noel

If you experience another glitches, please try to find out how to reproduce them and I will think about a way how we could connect to resolve the problem.

It no longer seems possible to restart aerohost.exe without having to reboot? It is obviously not a service.

post-111033-0-25378300-1390351590_thumb.


I normally install new versions of Aero Glass by moving Symbols folder and licence.key out of AeroGlass folder, delete Aeroglass folder then install new version and move Symbols folder and licence.key back to AeroGlass folder, stop aerohost.exe and dwm.exe then restart aerohost.exe and dwm.exe. I guess I will leave Symbols folder and licence.key in AeroGlass folder when installing any future new versions. Aero Glass works great when I reboot. Thanks for this app.







BTW, when I first installed I got the watermark, but the last few reboots, there is no watermark and I did not make any hacks to remove it.
