According to Enable and Control DWM Composition:
Note As of Windows 8, the information in this section is no longer valid. DWM can no longer be programmatically disabled, nor is it disabled when an application attempts to draw to the primary display surface. The following information applies to only Windows 7 and earlier systems.
OK. So we can no longer programmatically disable DWM. But can it still be disabled? Will pfEnabled
of DwmIsCompositionEnabled always be set to TRUE on Windows 8?
If composition can be disabled somehow, is DwmIsCompositionEnabled still somewhat useful in any manner?
