I'm not sure whether this is a DWMBlurGlass bug or an ExplorerBlurMica bug, but I'm filing it here because it only seems to affect Explorer windows.

After updating DWMBlurGlass to the latest version (2.2.0, as of writing), Explorer windows become completely transparent after DWMBlurGlass loads. This is temporarily fixed by restarting explorer, but it comes back when you unfocus and refocus an Explorer window.

This bug is complicated to describe, so a screen recording is attached.

Hmm... related to that, I've tried the previous version of DWMBlurGlass (Version 2.1.1) along with ExplorerBlurMica (the latest version, which is 2.0.1 at the time I'm writing this) and it also throw up this problem as well. I'm wondering if it's related to symbol files or something else.

EDIT: I'm on Windows 10 22H2 when using these.

Update: This still occurs even if I downgrade to the latest release version (2.0.1) - I'm pretty sure it's some sort of weird incompatibility with DWMBlurGlass.

Same here. Also, EBM is causing Windows Explorer to freeze and glitch and no longer seems to be working properly on many Windows 10 installs.
