Desktop Window Manager Gone
So just recently my Aero effects have stopped working, I can't change the transparency or window color, and my dwm is not even running or listed in the services as you can see in the picture.
I've tried running the aero trouble shooter and it says DWM is disabled and the service isn't running.
The themes service is running and automatic. I've tried net stop uxsms and net start uxsms, and it says the service name is invalid. I've also tried multiple system restores' before and after updates. I'm not sure if this is the problem or not but Windows 7 Service Pack 1 for x64-based Systems (KB976932) won't install either, I've tried System Repair and Clean start up then manually installing it but it won't work.
If I do net stop uxsms it says "The service name is invalid.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2185."
