explorerblurmica's Issues

1.0.5 conficts with TranslucentFlyouts

Windows 11 21H2 - 22000.1817
Using ExplorerPatcher

Found at that after a restart of windows explorer process when opening a file , explorer just crashes or when trying to open ControlPanel just instantly fails to launch

After trying some tweaks on ExplorerPatcher and closing some backround apps found out the issue is 100% caused from https://github.com/ALTaleX531/TranslucentFlyouts which i think you are familiar with.

When booting and try to open explorer the first time after boot an explorer.exe - System Error hits - "A new guard page for the stack cannot be created "

So this issue happens always with TranslucentFlyouts running

Closing/ relaunching TranslucentFlyouts no problem occurs until explorer.exe gets a restart

Anyways thank you for this great mod

Doesn't work in battery mode

Windows 11 forces the transparancy off in battery mode and brakes the interface. I haven't found a workaround but plugging the power back into the laptop sorts the issue right away.

I have standard Windows with 'Startisback' installed.

BUG With Dark Mode in WIN11 22H2

I tried the ExplorerBlurMica app and it works great, but when I go to dark mode the dark mode doesn't affect the file explorer very well, unless I remove ExplorerBlurMica.
WIN11 22H2
Thanks!

BUG With the "1=Acrylic"

The effect of "1=Acrylic" does not work properly, it actually works the same as "2=Mica".
WIN11 22H2
Latest version of ExplorerBlurMica.
(I don't know if the previous version also had this bug).

Big thanks

Hi,

Big thanks for this I love it with micaforeveryone. is there a way to keep the same aspect for non-active windows?

控制面板显示问题

进入部分二级菜单后 有文字的地方被色块覆盖
不确定是不是由ExplorerBlurMica带来的,但控制面板背景部分确实和文件资源管理器有一样的背景效果

Bug with Control Panel and question

There's this bug in Windows 11's Control Panel. I'm currently in version 22H2.

Screenshot_16

Also, will there be an update for blur effect on 22H2? I honestly love it more than Acrylic effect!

Version 1.0.7

i've tested the version 1.0.7 and in the left navigation pane the text become invisible, except by hovering on it. Thanks🙏

背景不刷新问题

1

背景内容变化时,如果不拖放资源管理器,模糊背景内容不会实时刷新
用的是win10,不清楚win11有没有同样问题。。。

安装完无任何效果,win10 22H2

大佬,想问下我这个为啥完全没效果,我严格按照步骤来,用管理员身份打开那个register.cmd的文件,然后我重启了资源管理器,但是一点效果都没有,后来我试过重启,试过直接用cmd的命令安装,试过在全英文路径下安装,都没效果。我是dark mode,然后我自己在用TranslucentTB,我把TranslucentTB关掉也不能解决问题。这到底是咋回事呀,我是win10 22H2

[Feature] Support Glass-like Acrylic Blur

MicaForEveryone provides a option for "blur backround" which is quite close to old glass backround.
The thing is that this settings is very buggy (extremely slow resize of a windows, should click outside of window for the effect to be applied etc..) in MFE.
This feature is really great and would be a great addition to ExplorerBlurMica as it uses hooking methods and could provide better support when on the other hand MFE it does not as far as i know.

MFE Acrylic blur option:

MFE without blur option similar to ExplorerBlurMica:

黑色模式下重命名预览文字问题

黑暗模式下对文档重命名时,预览文字为黑色(以微软繁体注音输入法做测试),会和背景的黑色混合导致看不清,建议在黑暗模式下预览文字可改为白色

Acrylic Blurriness feature request

Despite that after the update the mod works very good i would like to suggest an enhancement if its possible to add in Acrylic effect a setting to change the amount of blurriness.
Thank you for the awesome work.

卸载之后系统任意窗口标题栏变窄

我试过在HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics更改BorderWidth和PaddedBorderWidth为默认值(分别为-15和-60)可以修复,但希望开发者能修复这个问题
另外,有没有其他对注册表的改动(需或不需要手动改回)?希望作者都能列出来。(~ ̄▽ ̄)~

Windows 11 预览框显示文字时一起把文字的透明度给调了,对查看造成了点障碍

这个感觉要么是把字调黑要么就是背景一起透明,不过字还是个问题,暂时貌似是显示text的时候有这个问题,如果预览是图片那么就没有bug,然后就是office的在预览框里面的表现也很好,估计不受影响是因为独立程序的缘故,除了透明度不跟资源管理器之外,现在问题应该就是文本的直接预览会有这个问题

Window gets opaque when minimizing and restoring

I use StartAllBack with windows 7 style explorer, but these issues happen with all styles.
This is how it should be (alpha value is set to 0):
image
When I minimize and restore the window it gets opaque. It also happens when a new explorer tab is opened:
image

Also the line in the sidebar is visible on the first explorer tab after opening a new one, even though showLine is set to false:

在显示器A启动的文件资源管理器,拖动到显示器B就会失去模糊效果

如题,我在两块不同的显示器之间拖动一个文件资源管理器的窗口,渲染会失效,只有切换到其他窗口,再回到Explorer.exe,才会恢复正常,如下图所示
Video_2023-08-07_003829 00_00_00-00_00_30~1

  • 显示器的分辨率为均为1920*1080,但一块是笔记本的内置屏幕,另一块使用VGA连接,并且尺寸不同
  • 浏览器的那块屏幕缩放比例是100%,但副屏(仅有桌面的)缩放比例是125%
  • 系统版本如下
    image

最小化资源管理器再打开模糊效果暂时消失

当我最小化资源管理器再打开,就会出现模糊效果消失的现象(最新版)
系统版本:Windows11 正式版最新版
正常运行
image
最小化资源管理器再打开
image
另外,这个模糊效果能不能把这里也包括呀,感觉有一丢丢突兀
image

Request for the next version

Scrollbar background color and Ribbon background color not affected, therefore we hope this 2 points will be solved in the next version, also the opacity of blur effect = 2 should be available, it's interesting tool to customize files explorer windows 11-22H2, great job👍

After maximizing the windows, it not using config files values?

before all i need to let you know im using windows 11 pro insider. so this issue maybe in this new versions of windows.

After configuring all the R.G.B and Alfa values it working fine until i maximizing my windows. it turning lighter color and mica effect is not working.

Befoure maximizing it will work as i needed
image

But after i maximizing my window this happens
image

So as mentioned earlier im using windows insider.
Microsoft Windows
Version 22H2 (0S Build 25357.1)

Thank you!!

requiest

Hi,
I really love using your work it's great.

Is it possible to have an option so that you can change the RGBA without having to change the config file.
I hope to see updates and more things possible.
keep up the good work

Also, is it possible to keep the inactive window the same as the active window?

Rendering issue when disable windows explorer navigation pane

I use windows 7 explorer with Explorer Patcher on latest Win11 21H2 and it works pretty well but after i disable navigation pane (left items) the blur rendering some times (30% of the times) gets wrong, after resizing you can see that issue stays only in the initial size of the window.
This gets fixed either by reopening the explorer or getting inside to a new folder.
This is a minor issue for me but worth mention it.

2nd

Explorer crashes

Explorer crashes when opening two times file explorer while using start all back and explorer blur mica.
It doesn't happen always but it happens and when it does only restart of pc fixes it.

W11 - 22H2 issues

Using a fresh install of the latest version of Windows 11 on 22H2 ( 22621.675 ) i found that there are issues when in 21H2 the effects were working as intended.

  1. Aero effect in the 22H2 explorer is broken except when all color parameters = 0.
  2. Acrylic works but Alpha is a bit different in this version and dont work as it should be
  3. In the new UI of the explorer top part where titlebar and tooltips are placed transparency is also broken and it either plain dark or white depending on the theme.

After installing ExplorerPatcher and checking if this issues happen to windows 10 and 7 explorer i found out that the problems also occurs there.Micaforeveryone is not that good as yours and i hope there is a possibility that these problems can be resolved.

谢谢你这个很棒的模组.

Can't uninstall

"You can also manually use CMD to register or uninstall

regsvr32 (/u) "you path/ExplorerBlurMica.dll""

i tried that but i get this error "The module "/u" failed to load. Make sure the binary is stored at specified path or debug it to check problems with the binary or dependent .DLL files."

Small incompatibility when using ExplorerBlurMica with StartAllBack on Windows 11 22H2

Thank you for this amazing program, I was looking for a while to add Mica to my Explorer and ExplorerBlurMica works great! There's just a small incompatibility with another program I use and I wanted to ask if it's possible to fix.

I'm using StartAllBack 3.6.1 to make my Explorer look like Windows 7 and while ExplorerBlurMica works it makes the search-bar overlap the Window Controls so you can't press them, look here at the upper right:

grafik

Would it be possible to fix this? Maybe ExplorerBlurMica can add a slight padding at the top of the window? Or is this something the developer of StartAllBack would need to fix? My Windows version is Windows 11 22H2 Build 22621.1344 and I'm using ExploerBlurMica 1.0.4.

Thanks for the great work either way! :)

EDIT: For reference this is how it looks with just StartAllBack and without ExplorerBlurMica, SaB can add Mica to the top of the Explorer but not to the entire window like ExplorerBlurMica can:
