Ended up just using OldNewExplorer, which I would have thought is broken after all these years. Did what I wanted it do, so nevermind this |

Hello. I've been using Windhawk for a Windows 7 setup on Windows 11. It actually looks quite nice, and I'm proud of it.

While I'm not willing to install Explorer7 or replace my explorerframe.dll (since I do not want to compromise my machine via Windows updates), I do customize my Explorer using Windhawk. Right now,
It looks like this. And I'm okay with it looking just like that, really (while I would also enjoy a Windows 7 details pane, I can go without it). However, as one might notice, the navigation bar (from Classic Navigation Bar + Ribbon UI -- hidden with Windows 7 Command Bar mod) does not feature glass effects as it does not appear to use DWM. And it bothers me.
I do not have any knowledge of how to edit or make Windhawk mods, but I do know that hooking into DWM is not an easy feat. Would anyone be willing to make a compatibility mod (or fork of the original Classic Navigation Bar mod) so that it uses DWM?
