In this post, we will see some of the new registry keys in Windows 7 Desktop Window Manager. There are some new registry keys in the DWM registry key which can be found in the following location:

All values have a range between 0 and 255
  • The Alpha value of 0 is completely transparent, 255 is completely solid.
  • Setting red, green, and blue all to 255 will result in black.
  • Setting red, green, and blue all to 0 will result in white.
