Windows 10: Apply WindowMetrics without the need to log in/out

I want to apply changes to global window metrics without the need the user to log out and back in to apply those changes.Specifically I want to set BorderWidth to 1 and PaddedBorderWidth to 0.Registry path:Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetricsRestarting Windows Explorer or Desktop Window Manager doesn't seem to work.Disclaimer:I know that there is a Win32 function SystemParametersInfo. Sadly this function is buggy and does not comply with the specification given in docs.That is why I wanted to ask another question, is there a way to report non-functioning Win32 API.

The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

You already know what I'm going to say.

• Cool Silver G4
• ~9 months
• As directed first step,
  Second step I always install, then immediately uninstall, the HSF to remove the excess TIM. Which generally includes thoroughly cleaning either the processor die and/or the HS mating surface. Only both if I really screwed up and put way too much on, but always at least one or the other. Because it's almost impossible, IMO, to not apply too much TIM on your first try. And you can typically get by easily with half the amount(or ~ whatever is still stuck to the processor die or HSF after removing it). Next step I usually apply a few tiny pin point size dabs in any spots that look like they need more. Then final step, I reinstall the HSF, and call it good.
• Because it's some seriously good TIM! Best I've ever used. No joke!*Wink
