How To: Enable Windows Aero In Vista Home Basic

Windows Vista Home Basic does not come with the Windows Aero feature but in this tutorial I’m going to show you how to enable it by modifying the registry, it might slow down your performance though if you don’t have a computer up to the Vista Premium standards.

1) To enable windows aero – click here to download the modified registry file.

2) Download the file to your desktop, unzip it and move the .reg file directly on your desktop (not in a folder).

3) Right click the .reg (On Desktop) file and click Merge.

4) Click on the Run button when the Security Warning pops-up.

5) Click on Continue (UAC), Yes, and then OK when prompted.

6) Logoff and logon or restart the computer to apply the changes.

7) When finished you can delete the .reg file.

To restore everything to its original state and disable the windows aero feature simply download this registry file and do the same as you did with the one above.
