Windows Aero is revised in Windows 7, with several UI changes, such as a more touch friendly interface, and many new visual effects and features including pointing device gestures: Aero Peek showing the Windows 7 desktop when the mouse is pointed on the 'show desktop' button on taskbar. Glass2K gives a good Aero like effect for Windows 10.You have control over the transparency and can set the blur option to resemble the Windows 7 look. So there you have it. Now you know how to get the Aero theme for Windows 7 and get transparent title bar.Although these are workarounds, I really want Windows to restore the much wanted Aero theme.

1. Aero Mode Windows 7
2. Aero Mode With Windows 7 2

When I set my windows 7 in any of the Aero Themes some application (like Chrome, Evernote, WMVare Workstation etc) renders the fonts all blurry.

Anyone experianced this and know of a solution? I can of course put the application in compability mode and force the system to display everthing in Windows 7 Basic mode but that isn't what I want ..

It can happen if your DPI setting is higher than 120dpi and application does not support DPI change.

If this is case you can check 'Disable display scaling on high DPI settings' on shortcut's compatibility tab and that should allow application to scale itself. However, if application's author didn't do his job properly, this will also cause elements to partly (or even fully) go outside application's window.

For making all applications work in high DPI and aero, change the windows settings as below

Open Personalization by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking Appearance and Personalization, and then clicking Personalization.

In the left pane, click Adjust font size (DPI).If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

In the DPI Scaling dialog box, click Custom DPI.

Select the Use Windows XP style DPI scaling check box, and then click OK.
