Ocassionally aero effects crash. Is there a way to re-enable the effects in Windows 7 after a crash happens?
i.e. restarting a service or terminatating a process and letting it restart automaticially or manually loading it?
Problem symptoms; in
Control Panel \ Appearance and Personalization \ Personalization
The standard "Window Color" option is not available it just appears as "Basic"
Reboot will solve this issue, but would like to avoid that if possible.
2sage- You need to run the command window elevated (right click, run as elevated). That will take care of the "Access denied" messages. – None – 2012-01-18T10:45:57.510
@davenpcj - Same here, especially when my question states that I want to find another solution, apart from restarting; Also, if one asks a question where rebooting is an option, I might let a comment to this effect go, but having an answer to a question (Which might stop others looking at it) like this, is annoying. One just needs to find someone with an intricate enough understanding of the system in question, in order to get a great, insightful, StackExchange-like answer... like Diago below, infact!
