I can't confirm this. I'm running Windows 7 x64, and the visual styles work perfectly with build 2374. I'm also running several programs that I originally wrote for Windows XP, and they all use visual styles without any modifications necessary. Maybe those of you having problems with the styles simply should reboot their Windows, since I indeed can confirm problems with the visual styles of programs after changing from embedded manifest to separate file and vice versa. After rebooting these problems were gone.
