Hello friends:
I tried to enable the full Areo in 4066 (to make the effect like 4074). So I followed the article "Aero Done Right" on Longhorn.ms. However, I used modified "Aero" theme, and created "MILExplorer" DWORD and set it to 1 them restart explorer, but the explorer is still gray, nothing happeded. And each time I tried to open "My computer", the explorer crashed.
So the test seems failed, because I don't have the ability to find more about how to fix it
But I found sth about DWM:
Pic 1: In this time I enabled Aero theme and set MILExplorer
Pic 2: Just enabled DWM , nothing else were did.
Both of them are not active. You can clearly see the difference between them!
P.S. How to enable Aero Star in 4066? MILDesktop seems not work./

Restart explorer.exe after MILDesktop and unlock the taskbar to get Aero Stars
Also, MILRender is broken in 4066 so the aero theme doesn't work

HQY,This is a very interesting finding. But i think you need to replace more files.

Use Vmware 6.5.2 SVGA driver and disable the sidebar.

The thing with the window frame happens in 4074 TWIWMTB as well. It happens when the window becomes "inactive" (you clicked out of it). Click back in the window and the frame returns to normal. Nothing strange here.
