I was looking out in the web for "Aero Glass 22H2" and found out a link to a Chinese web-site called bilibili, which I guess it's a sort of like youtube web-site. I found this video Here. Decided to give it a try on a vm to see if it really works, and to my surprise it actually does. It's a bit glitchy, but it does work. I downloaded the files from the second link in the description, the github page led me to an old version of it which did not worked. This one tho did work like a charm. Password for it is qNTP. I must advise that I don't know if you can trust the guy who did this software, I found nothing about this modified version other than it's outdated github page, which is a different version, thus I don't know about security. Although, at least for me, windows defender did not even warned me while trying to install it, so I guess that's a good start.

This is a small project that valinet (creator of ExplorerPatcher, WinCenterTitle, etc.) did some time back. It was meant for 20H2 but it works on 22H2 since 20H1, 20H2, 21H1, 21H2, and 22H2 are all basically the same version.

This project looks really interesting! What is curious is that the version on Github is not functional. You may need to contact the developer on Github. Maybe I will. |

Many people had also asked Valinet to create an "Aero Glass" version. He was never motivated by it, but he said it was possible, so it doesn't surprise me. |

Anyways, Dulappy/mexicancatgirl is making a Windhawk mod which restores the Windows 7 window metrics and Aero glass. Here's a picture of it.

Where can we find this mod ? Sounds great. I just saw this in the Windhawks Discord server, indeed. |

The Aero Glass part of it actually uses the same method as Valinet’s implementation. I’ll eventually migrate over to a DirectX shader, though that may take a while. |

Of course I will. It's not a very insignificant program. Don't expect it to be 100% accurate to Windows 7 from the get-go though, I'm still struggling to get the default blur to work the way I want it to, and I also have a text renderer to write for the captions. |
