Stops working after a few minutes #67

Closed Gurrrra closed 7 months ago

Gurrrra commented 7 months ago

I recently installed DWMBlurGlass mostly because this is the only way I've found to change the blur radius of all the existing acrylic stuff in Win10, but it only seem to hold the settings for a few minutes before it just reverts back to default. Then I have to press uninstall and then install again to make it work again for another few minutes. I'm also running SecureUxTheme, not sure if that might be incompatible with this tool?

you can try this if you only want to change the blur radius of existing arcylic stuff- https://windhawk.net/mods/acrylic-effect-radius-changer

DWMBlurGlass gets (falsely) marked by Windows Defender as dangerous, have you made an exception for the executable?

Maplespe commented 7 months ago

@craftnut It is well known that most of the beautification software is falsely reported, obviously due to the lack of security certificates issued by Microsoft, and memory modification operations of system processes. You can do an experiment by writing a small program that will be marked as dangerous as long as the code contains operations such as injecting processes and memory modifications. This problem cannot be solved, and it is obvious that Microsoft cannot allow these operations.

@Maplespe I'm aware, just thought that sounds like it could be the issue that Gurrra is having. I did not mean to imply it is an issue with the software, sorry

Maplespe commented 7 months ago

I think this should be a problem due to dwm crashes. The new version should improve it though, the crash is caused by DWM Blur internally .

Gurrrra commented 7 months ago

Yes I have been running the latest version for a couple of hours now and it seems to be stable, thanks @Maplespe !

@Maplespe so far the 1.0.4 update seems MUCH more stable, which is extremely impressive! How did you do it? Is it still the same type of blur being used, or did you change the type?
