This section describes the Windows Shell structures used in the Shell APIs.I have quite a long history trying to get “Linux-y” environment working on Windows (yes, I’m stuck on that platform), from enhanced cmd.exe to WSL to Git Bash. This section describes library, property, and transfer manifest schemas used by the Windows Shell. This section describes the C++ Windows objects implemented by the Shell. This section describes the Windows objects implemented by the Shell for use in scripting and Microsoft Visual Basic. Shell Objects for Scripting and Microsoft Visual Basic
This section describes the messages and notifications sent by elements of the Windows Shell. This section describes the Windows Shell utility macros.
This section describes the Windows Shell lightweight utility functions provided in Shlwapi.dll. This section describes the Windows Shell constants, enumerations, and flags used in the Shell APIs. This section describes the Windows Shell callback functions templates.
This section describes the Windows Shell functions. This section describes the Windows Shell Component Object Model (COM) interfaces. This section describes select Windows Shell classes. Unless otherwise noted, all programming elements are documented in unmanaged C++. The following table provides an outline of the Shell Reference section. Shell Samples provides links to related code samples.The Shell Reference section documents programming elements that make up the various Shell APIs.The Shell Developer's Guide provides conceptual material about how the Shell works and how to use the Shell's API in your application.This documentation is broken into three major sections: The following development scenario relates to device support: Supporting libraries in Windows Explorer.Implementing a subset of the Shell data source tasks (virtual folders).Supporting desktop search and OpenSearch.The following development scenarios relate to data storage ownership: The following development scenarios relate to file format ownership: Supporting libraries and item views in Windows Explorer.Implementing a subset of the Shell data source tasks.Extending the Shell, which consists of creating a data source (versus consuming the Shell data model).The following development scenarios relate to application development: The Shell organizes these objects into a hierarchical namespace and provides users and applications with a consistent and efficient way to access and manage objects. There are also a number of virtual objects that allow the user to perform tasks such as sending files to remote printers or accessing the Recycle Bin. The most numerous and familiar of these objects are the folders and files that reside on computer disk drives. The Windows UI provides users with access to a wide variety of objects necessary for running applications and managing the operating system.
