This utility brings back aero effect to file explorer and other windows in win10/11
https://github.com/Maplespe/DWMBlurGlass

Can support be added to nexus dock to where the blur effect can utilise its custom composition? it's open source and the devs are helpful. Might be worth a shot.

it is sort of working but its broken. I'm sure with some tweaks to the nexus ultimate codebase, it can be made to work with DWMBlurGlass

By editing the Taped theme, I can get it to work fully- but only if I select a different theme then switch back to Taped. This can work, just need a bit of tweaking

Without direct OS support as in Windows 7, and much to my sadness, this is not feasible.
