Acrylic Color Glows

https://windhawk.net/mods/acrylic-color-glows

Animated light effects behind the windows you choose: drifting glows, sweeping light beams, orbs moving in the directions you pick, or flowing waves. The effect is drawn by a separate, click-through window placed directly below each target window, so a translucent (acrylic/blur) target blurs it into its own background. The mod doesn't inject code into other processes, never draws above text or controls, and doesn't change the transparency of any application. Effects

Glows: three large glows drifting from side to side.
Light beams: soft beams coming from one edge of the window and slowly sweeping back and forth. Choose the number of beams, the edge and the sweep angle.
Directional orbs: up to 12 orbs, each with its own color, direction and speed. They bounce off the edges or wrap around to the opposite side.
Waves: three flowing bands of color. Choose the amplitude and the wavelength.

Colors 1-3 are used by glows, beams and waves; orbs have their own colors. "Cycle duration" sets the overall speed of every effect. "Size" sets the glow and orb diameter and the beam and wave thickness.

Desktop Window Cards

https://windhawk.net/mods/desktop-window-cards

When you minimize a window, a copy of it "falls" onto the desktop: it drops away, tilts back, loses its shadow and dims, until it lands as a small card underneath all other windows. Showcase Watch the full-quality video

Click the thumbnail: the card rises back to the window's original position and the real window is restored in its place.
Top bar: drag it to move the card around the desktop. With the option enabled, the position is remembered: the next time you minimize that window, its card lands where you left it.
X button: closes the window (or only removes the card, depending on the settings).
Smooth reveal: on restore, a snapshot of the card stays on top of the window while Windows rebuilds its transparency effects (Mica/Acrylic), then fades out to reveal the real window, hiding the initial flicker.

Cards use DWM thumbnails, the same ones used by taskbar previews. The content stays live as long as the app keeps drawing while minimized; many apps stop doing so and show their last frame.

The mod runs in a dedicated Windhawk tool process. Cards remain available across Explorer restarts. Notes

Native Windows animation: in "Off only when restoring from a card" mode (default), Windows animations stay enabled (maximize, snap and other mods relying on them keep working) and are switched off only for the moment a card restores its window. When minimizing, Windows' own animation towards the taskbar therefore remains visible as well. "Always off" disables it while the mod is active: no double animation, but no maximize animation either. These changes only apply to the current session.
If the mod's process ends unexpectedly while the native animation is switched off, the mod switches it back on the next time it starts.
Cards don't follow virtual desktops.
Windows running as administrator can be shown as cards, but restoring or closing them from a card may fall back to a plain restore, since a non-elevated process can't send them commands.
Apps that hide to the notification area when minimized don't get a card.
