Recently we published a useful article which helps you in adding "Restart Explorer" option in Desktop context menu in Windows Vista and 7:
Add “Restart Explorer” Option in Desktop and Explorer Context Menu under Windows Vista and 7
An AskVG.com reader "Patrick" requested the same mod for restarting uxsms service to easily fix Windows Aero related problems.
So we are publishing another article which will help you in adding an option "Restart uxsms" in Desktop and Explorer context menu (menu which appears when you right-click) so that you can stop and restart the "uxsms" service if you face any kind of problem with Windows Aero.
HOW-TO:
Simply download following ZIP file, extract it and run the "Install.exe" file :
It'll automatically install the required files and will ask you to add the option into Windows Registry, accept the confirmation by clicking on "Yes" button and then OK.

What problems we face with Windows Aero forcing us to restart the uxsms service?
m236
If UAC disabled u can use "net start uxsms && net stop uxsms" command @ regedit
HKCR>DesktopBackground>AnyKeyName>Command>Default ;)
// i was learned it from here lol //
If UAC enabled i tried RunAS command but it didnt worked 4 me... :(
"runas /user:administrator" // this command says; need password but pass is empty lol when hit enter and leave pass empty says; access denied > system cannot use commands w/o password etc...
>> this stupid text was in xp when logging another LAN pc using RemoteDesktop and blank password
Thanx for this nice post
(Some ''free'' antiviruses and antispyware programs see all batch files as virus except system files)

Why if i open games folder its very slow to loading ??? It takes 30-60 seconds to load.
I tried to defrag Disk, Clean registry, and another related to speedup perfomance. But, nothing results :(

@leomate,
i think its normal, getting the performance and game info over the net takes a bit of time,
