Option to restore "thick" DWM window borders (Windows 11)
Describe the solution you'd like
Similar to restoring Win7 titlebar button size, but it restores the window border as it's forced to being hidden by Windows 11's DWM (which also forces rounded corners)
Your reason (tell us why we need it)
Better support for themes with borders (e.g. Aero10, Aero10 Metro, Longhorn Pearl etc)
Describe alternatives you've considered
Tried OpenGlass (without DWMBlurGlass installed), which can restore borders through a registry entry, but it has a compatibility issue when it comes to DLL injection on Win11 24H2 and thus cannot use that.
Actually theres a Windhawk mod to restore the borders, and it called: Bring Back the Borders!

It worked for me once after installing Aerexplorer, but then after a restart it stopped working completely, I don't even think Aerexplorer was working too.

doesnt work well with the config "restore win7 titlebar button size" if running with a theme, eg; aero11

Oh yeah I had that issue while it was working. If tried making a wonky fix by forcing a x offset from the right corner, but when I didn't have it windowed the buttons would not be in the correct position.
