Simple batch file to execute a program without DWM. 

 

In this instance I've used Internet Explorer 7 simply because a command was easier typing than a full path, but you can easily put a full program path there. Execute the bat, via shortcut if you want one, and it will pop up a window, kill the Desktop Window Manager (Aero Glass effects), run the program, and then, once the program has been terminate by the user, start up the DWM service again.

 

 

@echo off
cls
echo Killing DWM
net stop uxsms
title dwmslayar
echo (%time%) app launched
start /wait iexplore
echo (%time%) Reloading DWM
net start uxsms
exit
