Transparent/glass effect for vb.net form in Windows 10 [SOLVED]

I have some spare time from my studies and I am once again trying to search for a blurred/transparent form background, or to be specific 'aero glass effects'. It seems that the methods used already are only for Windows 7 and are not supported in Windows 10.

I'm asking if anyone here knows where I can start for the glass effect that Windows 10 currently uses, maybe even a reference I can download to do the trick (rtaGlassEffectsLib.dll does not work in this case).

Thanks.

EDIT:

I FINALLY FOUND SOMETHING THAT WORKS. Anyone else that finds this and needs help, go here: https://www.codeproject.com/Questions/10...in-windows works like magic.
Maybe the dumbest reply but...Have you tried to enable Areo in Windows 10?

Code
DWORD EnableBlurBehind equals to 1
reg:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\Personalize
I assumed it was already enabled (it was visible in other windows) but I checked the registry, not there, then updated Windows and checked the registry again and it appears I do not have the option still.

EDIT: found something that works.
