This is very simple if you would like it to start every time windows starts. Download the attached file if needed. Next click on your start menu window and browse to startup folder right click and open this folder. Next open the folder where you stored the full glass file right click full glass exe and create shortcut. Drag the shortcut into the startup folder. close all folders restart and your done. Your welcome

Yep you can do it just like big v said or you can just simply double click on the fullglass.exe file and it will run the program....no installation is needed. After you run fullglass you will see an icon in your notification area so you can exit the application whenever you like......I don't ever recommend running something like this at startup, just one more thing to slow your comp down. But for you this is probably the best way.

Not for shure what would be causing the text change. i have not used full glass very much myself. i have always used enhanced black glass myself which works very well on dark themes. you can get it here http://browse.deviantart.com/?qh=&section=&q=enhanced+black+glass#/d2kr5jo and the install would be the same as the full glass just delete the full glass from startup folder.

No. It just means that your explorer background should be black instead of the original white it is in the original aero theme

Yes you need a dark theme not black but dark, the full glass app will only work on dark themes and it's also better to have a dark background, the theme also needs to have a very light text, white text works best.

For enhanced black glass yes but for full glass i don't think so. Like i said in my previous post i don't have alot of experience with the full glass but i will try to help in any way i can.

mike this maybe a dumb question but what color is your desktop? because the glass will turn your text transparent and if your desktop is yellow your text will be also.

Fullglass.exe and similar will not work on white themes. Only use fullglass.exe and similar for theme that are optimized for it, as for example Mr Grim's Midnight theme.
