"Unable to restore DWM" error about win11disableroundedcorners HOT 19 OPEN

I encountered this and to fix it I deleted uDWM_win11drc.bak in C:\windows\system32 and rerun the exe.

from win11disableroundedcorners.

This issue stems from the fact that Windows will sometimes detect this modification as an "integrity violation" and restore the original uDWM file. Because the backup is still present, the program is unable to undo a non-existent patch. I propose that to handle such a scenario, the program should check if the uDWM file has been reverted before using the backup to restore the rounded corners.

every time win11 updates
it gives me rounded corners like it's somehow preferable
every time i run this to restore sanity

i f- hate what they've done to computers and to the programming community

thank you for everything

if you're getting errors, it can be fixed and works - remove a "uDWM_win11drc.bak" from system32 with a command. can done it like: del C:\windows\system32\uDWM_win11drc.bak

then, try run apps again.
