2. Slow motion Translucent zoom In & Out
[Press Shift key and open/close any program]
3. Flip 3D [ Win+Space ]
4. Flip 3D Slow Motion effect [ Win+Space & Shift immediately ]

............................................................................................................

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DWM]
"EnableMachineCheck"=dword:00000000
