Thank you for this nice project. Here is some feedback:

1. When I open a window, the normal Win8 design appears for a split second before the glass effect shows up.

2. I added an attachment with the best configuration of color and intensity.

Well, I admit that this can look weird but this does not seem to be bug. If you look properly this happens even in Win7; it is just reversed there - Window opens with fully transparent frame, then the blur appears.

So after poking a bit...

1: The GUI tool resets the DLL path. Bad.

2: Without touching the tool and being sure that the registry setting survives, glass still refuses to work in any other way than by running the loader included in older versions.

3: I'm out of ideas.

Do I understand correctly that you use old loader to load the current version? If not, then try looking into Log Viewer whether there is not some info why AppInit_DLLs failed to load. Also make sure that UEFI secure boot is disabled (I don't know whether you have already mentioned this)-

Correct. I use the 0.5 loader to load the 0.7. I will look into the logs...

However due to a technical problem I will be re-installing windows 7 today. Windows 8 is so fragile it keeps breaking on me.

The only thing I can see in the log viewer is a warning confirming that I indeed am loading custom libraries. That is all.

one of the nicest pieces of software for improving windows 8 is being ruined by the popup box that happens far too often

you have made your point surely by showing it on startup - to constantly pop it up is beyond a joke - ok you want to make money out of your hard work and you will but be fair to those who are testing it and reporting back - its a pain in the backside

protection is one thing paranoia is another - its time somebody took it out - i for one have uninstalled your [excellent] software - if and when the final version comes out i will look again

and please comment - dont ignore it as you have up until now - if i am turned off there must be others - you are harming your reputation imo

i had stopped using the software but decided to continue

but this is getting beyond a joke - how does this popup thing work - i have been using the laptop about 90 minutes this morning - i have seen the popup 3 times - its time the author commented - his silence is doing him no good or somebody with some skill took it out - there may be a lot of work getting to where the thing is but be fair - its becoming unusable - i did not mind the dos window open - that just sat in the background but this thing in your face is not on
