  4. In the right pane, right click – NewCreate a new DWORD (32-bit) Value key and name it HideBlur.
  5. Set the new key value to 1.
  6. Restart the computer for the change to take effect.
  7. As a side note, this hack seems to work only on the following Windows 7 build: 6956, 7048, 7106 and 7127.
