Windows.h is still full of obsolete ancient macros that can’t be removed for compatibility. Things like references to near and far pointers (still!) and how every Win32 function with string params is a macro for the real A/W-suffixed functions, and all the A-suffixed functions now intentionally crash on post-98 systems.
