Transparency on Browser Window

I have a program installed on Windows 10 that allows me to have transparent window borders like Windows Vista/7, but it doesn't seem to work on Firefox when set to the "Default" theme. Firefox instead shows my system color [shown in image]. Firefox handles transparency correctly on an actual installation of Vista/7, so is it possible to achieve the same effect? Maybe it's located somewhere in about:config or I would need to have a custom "userChrome.css" file to make it register?

I tried inputting the following CSS code into the userChrome file, but it only duplicated the window's color, not it's transparency: 

:root{
  --titlebar-text-color:#fff!important;
}
#main-window:root:not(:-moz-window-inactive):not(:-moz-lwtheme){
  background-color:-moz-win-accentcolor!important;
}
.tabbrowser-tab:hover .tab-background:not([selected="true"]){
  background-color:rgba(255,255,255,.1)!important;
}
.tabbrowser-tab:hover .tab-line:not([selected="true"]){
  background-color:rgba(255,255,255,.2)!important;
}

I really am at a loss here. Is there any way to achieve this affect on a Win10 system?

Turns out, you have to use a program called ResourceHacker [or some alternative] and remove the line of the text in the executable file that specifies Windows 10. The instructions are linked below:

Turns out, I had to use a program called ResourceHacker [there may be alternatives] to modify the part of the executable that specifies a Windows 10 system. The guides I followed are listed here:
