Hello World,

For beginners, this link(below) gives you some basic/conceptual windows programming "How things work under the hood".

In my opinion it gave me a good jump start on windows programming couple with resource intensive from MS web sites.

One good pointer the tutorials use LCC Win and it works with using Pelles C as well.

The owner of this link is Pravin Paratey and is still work in Progress. ...to all noobs - Check it out !

This is an excellent tutorial on preventing flickering, a common problem when developing WinAPI applications:

Hope anyone finds it useful!

The post is 11 years old, and things change...   :)
The VISTA OS has been removed from any kind of support, nobody cried  ;), last month and the help system is no more actively supported from long time ago.
Anyway with some help from google:
Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4
Windows 10 SDK

You may know windows 10 no longer supports .hlp files with the OS.  However there are many useful .hlp files. Before tackling a reader or converter a web search turned up a solution. I've tested on several Win10 systems and it works very well.  All of my .hlp files display as they did previously.  Here is the link:
https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/winhlp32_for_windows_10.html

As always be sure you scan the file with antivirus software, all I can attest to is when I downloaded it was fine.

Found this very interesting git page.

https://github.com/mity/old-new-win32api/blob/master/README.md

QuoteThe Old New Win32API
This page provides a list of links to subset of posts of Raymond Chen's famous blog The Old New Thing. The subset is limited mainly to Win32API and some COM-related stuff.

The reason why I maintain this page is that it often provides information which is missing on MSDN or which is described there in a cryptic way, and also because the blog is not easily searchable.

The links here are categorized by their topic instead of a chronological order. Sometimes, when appropriate, a single post may be put into multiple categories.

In some (quite rare) cases, links to other sources are included if they are found useful.

Disclaimer: I am not claiming authorship of any linked contents. This is only about hopefully useful organization of the great articles Raymond has written over the years.
