Describe the bug DWMBlurGlass fails installing, claiming that OpenProcess failed, but reports itself installed. No visible effects on windows or their captions either.

To Reproduce

  1. Get the last release of DWMBlurGlass from 'Releases' page here
  2. Unpack it to a folder that does not require administrative privileges to do anything
  3. Launch the app, click 'Install'

Additional information:

OS Version : Windows 11 23H2.22631.3593 Software Version : 2.2.0

What other third-party software do you use:

ExplorerPatcher DWM Service to enable squared window corners

Additional context User Account Control settings are enabled with the highest setting + enforced group policy to require credentials on secure desktop. Used antivirus software is not Microsoft Defender, but disabling it does not make any changes. Disabling ExplorerPatcher DWM service does not give any positive effect.
