Transparent menus on desktop, but not on Windows File Explorer #149

I like transparent menus on desktop, but not so on Windows File Explorer.

So, I added "explorer.exe" to "Disabled List", but the side effect was that the desktop transparent menus were also gone. Is there a remedy for this?

No, it is impossible. Desktop and file explorer are the same process.

Can't you use the Windows File Explorer window handle number to get its process number, and go from there, rather than using the generic "explorer.exe" process name?
