Aero Glass inject itself only into the DWM and no in other programs so you can play without problems. I also play some games with it and there is no impact on them

@bigmuscle's Aero Glass makes it onto a major tech website: How to change the look of Windows 10's desktop with native settings or Aero Glass --JorgeA

Well sure, I was more likely to believe that in the 90s, where plenty of people were suddenly introduced by magic boxes without any previous experience with the things. Nowadays, things should have been different but strangely it isn't.

In Live installation you cannot change what is installed by default. Powershell is not installed by default in Live install, neither does .NET Framework 4.0. Microsoft .NET Frameworks 1.1 and 3.5 are always installed in Live installations. In live installation, .NET Framework 1.0 SP3 is installed only if .NET Framework 1.0 for XP is previously present (Tablet PC, MCE). In MCE with SP4 installed .NET Framework 1.1 is not removable. In MCE/Tablet PC edition with SP4 installed .NET 1.0 SP3 is not removable. WGA Notifications are forced to be disabled. Powershell must be removed before installing SP4. It is not installed by the package installer and must be re-enabled manually afterwards. In CD-ROM installation, only .NET Framework 3.5 is installed by default. .NET Framework 1.1 is also always installed in MCE and it's not removable. .NET Framework 1.0 SP3 is always installed with Tablet PC Edition and it's not removable. You can modify the default installation state by using the OC-PATCHES compressed inf files for the respective components (replace the originals in the SP4-slipstreamed media).

I use aero glass on my gaming computer also play CS GO no problem here no worry !

Aaron Stebner's blog has all the info you need to remove and reinstall .NET 1.0, and it can be both removed and reinstalled without touching the other .NET versions. However, there is some evidence that when removing and reinstalling once does not fix the issue you mentioned, doing it twice works (I've seen it myself, and no, I don't know why). Good luck! As for the flag, given what you said, it's OK, let it remain as it is.

Jaclaz is actually right, I've tweaked 8.1 pretty heavily to make it more "serious" and less apt to be chatty online. Since I have reconfigured/tweaked/augmented EVERY version of Windows to make them better, I don't see what I've done with 8.1 as fundamentally different - though you could argue I've done a little MORE with it. I never had to re-theme 7, for example, nor had to remove a whole set of Apps. But I HAVE replaced the Start Menu (with Classic Shell) going all the way back. I have augmented 7/Vista/XP/2000/NT4/NT3.5/and all the others with 3rd party software that does Good Things. Win 10 isn't the first "bad" version. I think of it as just a darker shade of gray, with NO bright spots making it attractive. It's just that 8.1 was closer to the time that Microsoft cared about serious computing, and they hadn't ruined quite so many things yet. It was a bit easier to resurrect usefulness - though to be fair I've already done that with Win 10 as well (in virtual machines). With acceptance of some degradation of the desktop look and feel I could certainly live with Win 10. It does what I need. Just not better in any way I can discern (and trust me, I've looked hard). The advantage to my having chosen to do all this to 8.1 is that it has a bit longer "supported life" than 7 - though does that matter any more? "Support" from Microsoft has devolved into a "we've got a foot in the door, let's push Win 10 through it" situation. I haven't taken any updates on any systems this month, and I only took a few last month. Amazingly, nothing has fallen over and died yet. What I described above is my interactive workstation. I do have a small business server here also, still running Windows 7 (and no plans to "upgrade" to 10). It's working well enough too with nearly 2 months solid uptime and zero glitches.

Well, no. You are NOT running 8.1, you are running a heavily modified/tweaked 8.1 that after months of hard work, numberless tests and tweaks, you managed to tame into an OS that behaves (more or less) like 7. Maybe we can say that the line for conservativeness is drawn at XP users, and that Vista SP2 and 7 SP1 users (please read as Vista SP4 ) are - more than conservative - practical. To be not-conservative you would need to run 8.1 as delivered by MS with only very minor modifications (and optionally also like it ) jaclaz
