Bugs

User Tile

The User Tile does not work, but when fixing an error in twinui.dll, it gets fixed and is usable again.

DVM

DWM is very buggy and unstable in this build. When switching to a High Contrast theme, DWM still runs, with glass, but as you change to different High Contrast themes every few seconds, DWM slowly deteriorates until it stops working unless the user restarts the computer.
