You’re supposed to change CompositionPolicy to 2. 0 = disabled.

Not only miss-information but incorrect in instructions. One commenter already caught the ” 2 ” instead of the ” 0 ” error.
But this is not even a hack, per se, it Will reactivate and make available Aero features – but only on versions Above Basic.
Go here to get the features you want.
