Aero Peek - Turn On or Off

Yes, very carefully checked everything listed. I believe it may be the result of some errant and unknown registry change in the process of tweaking win 7 somewhere along the line. Everything else works perfectly and I even did the aero troubleshooting check and that was clean. I'm going to manually check Desktop Window manager service to ensure it is on auto. I've seen a couple reports like mine, unsolved, so there must be a dependent setting changed somewhere.

Xgman,

Doing a Repair install should be able to fix this for you without losing your current settings.

I did one better, I did an upgrade install to 7077 and now to 7100 and the problem carried over. Whatever did this is not being changed and overwritten on an upgrade. I guess whatever it is windows sees as a user preference and doesn't correct it. Oh well . . . . . I suppose a clean install would fix it, but whatever did this may reappear unless I figure out what did it.

I think I'll live with it till RTM. It's not that big of a problem, but still the cause is driving me nuts and whatever it is I may inadvertently do it again on RTM for all I know unless I carefully check behind each and every thing I install or set. Maybe someone will figure it out. Thanks for your suggestions though.
