Active windows + taskbar and start menu are fully opaque

[fartfacebill61]

I have the same problem again but at least this time they're the right colour??? I'm on windows 10 21h2 this time (LTSC)

There is no transparncy on active windows at all.

These are all my registry settings, please tell me what I'm missing???

I think you're missing the override values and blur radius, try adding these DWORD values (that I have on my system) at HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\DWM (in hexadecimal):

ColorizationAfterglowBalanceOverride: 2a ColorizationBlurBalanceOverride: 31 ColorizationColorBalanceOverride: 9 BlurDeviation: a

Then manually restart OpenGlass, tell me if this works or not.

Strange, this works fine on my side. Can you please show a screenshot of an window for example?

Default (without your reg adjustments)

With your reg adjustments Oddly it doesnt look overbright on the 7 background but on white content it doesn't look too great, also the text looks completely wrong. could be a separate issue.

Try creating the ColorizationColorCaption DWORD at the DWM key (if it doesn't exist), and set it to 10101, sometimes OpenGlass automatically changes to white instead of black.

Maybe you should change the values for ColorizationAfterglowBalanceOverride, ColorizationColorBalanceOverride and ColorizationBlurBalanceOverride for the appearance of your choice.

I ended up just directly copying values from my windows 7 install. Works perfectly
