MrGRiM Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Still working on my Aero Glass Blur Tweaker app but having some problems trying to get the registry setting to change to enable and disable Aero Glass, everything else works good though.Not sure if anyone knows why I am getting this message, I tried it on Windows 7 and it works fine, it's got me stumped.here is a bit of my code, I tried with VB Script as well as Java but it doesn't want to work on Windows 8, I commented out the VB to try the java. '---------------------------------Enable Aero Glass-------------------------- Sub GetCheckBoxChange const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002 strComputer = "." Set oReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv") strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows" strValueName = "LoadAppInit_DLLs" oReg.GetDWORDValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath,strValueName,dwValue If dwValue = "1" then DataArea11.InnerHTML = "Aero Glass Enabled" CheckBox.Checked = True Else DataArea11.InnerHTML = "Aero Glass Disabled" End If End Sub Function CheckBoxChange const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002 strComputer = "." If CheckBox.Checked Then EnableGlass Else DisableGlass End If End Function' Sub CheckBoxChange' const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002' strComputer = "."' If CheckBox.Checked Then ' Set oReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")' strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows"' oReg.CreateKey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath' strValueName = "LoadAppInit_DLLs"' dwValue = 1' oReg.SetDWORDValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath,strValueName,dwValue' Else Set oReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")' strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows"' oReg.CreateKey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath' strValueName = "LoadAppInit_DLLs"' dwValue = 0' oReg.SetDWORDValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath,strValueName,dwValue' End If' End Sub '------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sub OnMouseOver Set objItem = window.event.srcElement objItem.className="ImputsHover" End Sub Sub OnMouseOut Set objItem = window.event.srcElement objItem.className="Inputs" End Sub</script><script language="JavaScript">function writeInRegistry(sRegEntry, sRegValue){ var regpath = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion\\Windows\\" + sRegEntry; var oWSS = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell"); oWSS.RegWrite(regpath, sRegValue, "REG_DWORD");}function EnableGlass(){ writeInRegistry("LoadAppInit_DLLs", "1");}function DisableGlass(){ writeInRegistry("LoadAppInit_DLLs", "0");}</script> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderbolt 2864 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 You guys do realize once you donate and receive the key, copy and paste the key into notepad and name it license.key and place the file into the AeroGlass directory and restart your computer the message box will be gone right? Worked for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoelC Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I've noticed that ColorizationGlassReflectionIntensity seems to be all or nothing... BigMuscle can you confirm that this is to be expected?With ColorizationGlassReflectionIntensity set to various amounts...-Noel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGRiM Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I've noticed that ColorizationGlassReflectionIntensity seems to be all or nothing... BigMuscle can you confirm that this is to be expected?I noticed the same thing and also noticed on his site that he never mentioned being able to increase the opacity.ColorizationGlassReflectionIntensity DWORD 0x0 = disables Aero stripes effect, values different from zero = enables Aero stripes effect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmuscle Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 I've noticed that ColorizationGlassReflectionIntensity seems to be all or nothing... BigMuscle can you confirm that this is to be expected?Of course, as stated in the changelog/guide - disable (0) or enable (other values), nothing more.

NoelC Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Thanks. What made me curious was that someone had asked what the Windows 7 equivalent setting was, and I thought I saw you answer "30". I don't remember where I saw that (maybe earlier in this thread).-Noel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmuscle Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 It wasn't me. But to clarify - my reflection is drawn as if you set value 100 in Win7. Actually, the value only means the amount of transparency (0-100%) in Win7 - I use only alpha channel as information for transparency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worked for me.Why on earth would you even do all that? You simply download the "license.key" and put it as it is in the "AeroGlass" folder and reboot and your regged.

gontie Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Installed v1.2 in my laptop (running on batt), added the registry key to eneable glass on batt (dword 0x0) and still no aero effect.I rebooted the system twice: after installation and later, after adding the reg key)Rolllin' back to v1.1No, why could this have an influence ?In fact, after the second reboot, it came up. I have the feeling it had some difficulty to download something from internet even if my connection (WLAN and ADSL) are excellent.It seems to be disabled on battery and that does not depend on the power profile used. How can i enable aero when running on battery?Navitage to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\DWM:DisableGlassOnBattery, change its value to 0 (disabled) and you're all set.not workingYou may need these 2 fixes to enable Glass on battery and you need to restart the DWM.exe processThis works perfectly.Thanks for the update.

DosProbie Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Does Bypass theme signature ned to be set in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\DWM:BypassThemeSignature or is it possible to set it in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\DWM:BypassThemeSignature?i put it in both the HKCU and HKLM just to cover all the bases..Would be nice if we had like a definitive registry guide for all the proper settings..DP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmuscle Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 Full guide is here: http://glass8.berlios.de/guide.htmlNon-listed values are unsupported temporary settings which should not be set at all and it's not sure that they really work and they can be removed in any upcoming release.
