ep_dwm

Implements a Windows service that removes the rounded corners for windows in Windows 11.

Tested on Windows 11 build 22000.434.

Pre-compiled binaries are available in the ExplorerPatcher setup program (download the latest pre-release). You can install that program - it already includes this functionality built-in. Alternatively, to get only ep_dwm.exe from the downloaded ep_setup.exe, run this:

ep_setup /extract C:\ep_dwm

The executable will be extracted in C:\ep_dwm. If you do not need them, you can delete the rest of the files in there and keep only ep_dwm.exe.

To register, type these commands in an elevated command window:

sc.exe create ep_dwm binPath= "\"C:\ep_dwm\ep_dwm.exe\" ep_dwm Global\ep_dwm" DisplayName= "ep_dwm" start= auto
sc.exe description ep_dwm "ep_dwm Service"
sc.exe start ep_dwm

To unregister, type these commands in an elevated command window:

sc.exe stop ep_dwm
sc.exe delete ep_dwm
