Improvements:
- Applying acrylic without using layered windows, but by modifying immersive context menu theme data
- Using Windows Event Hooking instead of hooking a DLL into each process
- Improved performance and reliability
Bugfixes:
- Fixed a delay before applying acrylic effect
- Fixed flickering after applying acrylic effect
- Fixed font rendering issues when acrylic is applied
Known issues:
- It does not work well with dark context menu of taskbar while apps use light mode
- Ligatures at the end of the context menus are flickering when acrylic effect is applied
- There is an opaque border on context menus, even when acrylic effect is applied
This issue can be resolved by patching styles file (aero.msstyles)
Notes:
- You need to restart AcrylicMenus if you restart File Explorer

- Currently limited to File Explorer immersive context menus only
- Custom themes are not supported
- After stopping AcrylicMenus, you need to reboot or relogin to normalize context menus look
