It should be noted that two versions of the frames used by DWM exist within the system: a less transparent one, stored in <code>desksrv.dll</code> and loaded by default when using the [[Slate]] theme; and a more transparent one, stored in the <code>STREAM</code> folder of <code>jade.msstyles</code> and loaded by default when using the [[Jade]] theme. After having turned DWM off, the next time it will be enabled it will use the less transparent frames found in <code>desksrv.dll</code> regardless of the theme used. After re-applying Jade theme or restarting theme service, DWM will use borders from <code>jade.msstyles</code> again. | It should be noted that two versions of the frames used by DWM exist within the system: a less transparent one, stored in <code>desksrv.dll</code> and loaded by default when using the [[Slate]] theme; and a more transparent one, stored in the <code>STREAM</code> folder of <code>jade.msstyles</code> and loaded by default when using the [[Jade]] theme.

This build features an earlier and buggy version of the extended glass frames seen in build [[Windows Longhorn build 4074|4074]], and it is possible to enable them via the same <code>MILExplorer</code> DWORD. Most of the times the extended glass frame will be displayed as a black solid color, other than making the navigation buttons and the address bar disappear. For getting extended Glass effects to work, at least one Explorer window has to be opened before DWM is started, and those effects cannot be applied if Explorer window is opened after DWM is started. | This build features an earlier and buggy version of the extended glass frames seen in build [[Windows Longhorn build 4074|4074]], and it is possible to enable them via the same <code>MILExplorer</code> DWORD.

This is also the only available build able to render transparent notifications properly when DWM is enabled, as from build [[Windows Longhorn build 4074|4074]] onwards a black solid color background appears behind them. It is possible to get transparent notifications to work in builds ranging from [[Windows Longhorn build 4074|4074]] to [[Windows Longhorn build 4093 (main)|4093]] as well, but a modified <code>System.Windows.Explorer.dll</code> file is required. | This is also the only available build able to render transparent notifications properly when DWM is enabled, as from build [[Windows Longhorn build 4074|4074]] onwards a black solid color background appears behind them.
