4. In a `cmd` process running as administrator, navigate to the folder that you unzipped PsTools into (for example `c:\pstools`) and run the following command: `psexec64 -s -i cmd.exe`. This should open a new Command Prompt window running as SYSTEM.
5. In this new Command Prompt window, type `cd c:\awm` (or the folder you installed AWM to), followed by `injector`. After the injector process has initialized and injected `awmdll.dll` into DWM, a new console window titled "dwm.exe" should open. Do not close this window, as it will restart DWM. The awmdll.dll process will download symbols from Microsoft's servers (saved to `C:\awm\symbols`), after which it will hook into different functions within DWM, modifying their behavior. Then, clicking on any window should update its appearance to match that produced by AWM. \
**NOTE**: An update that makes the "dwm.exe" window not open anymore will be pushed soon.
