FYI, if anyone is running this and couldn’t get the Aero interface to work, I have found a solution.

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM\Composition \<-- set it to 1

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\DWM\CompositionPolicy \<-- set it to 2

Then go to a command prompt as administrator and type “net stop uxsms” hit enter. Then type “net start uxsms” hit enter. Aero should now work.
