Changelog

This mod includes a subset of functionality of the mod "DWM Unextend frames", but only includes fixes needed for Classic theme. It hooks less functions, is more lightweight, does not use pointer arithmetic and the code is more compact. It also injects dllhost.exe by default, which is needed for Windows Photo Viewer and some dialogs.
