The Feature Deprecation (Windows Vista) Microsoft stopped using shell32.dll AVI animations inside Windows Explorer starting with Windows Vista. The OS shifted away from the legacy Win32 SysAnimate32 control to modern WPF, Direct2D, and UIFILE progress dialogs. However, the physical .avi data was kept inside shell32.dll through Windows Vista and Windows 7 so legacy 32-bit software could still load them. 2. The Resource Payload Stripping (Windows 8 & Windows 10) During Windows 8 and early Windows 10 builds, Microsoft gutted the actual video data from shell32.dll to reduce system DLL file sizes: Dummy Container Headers: Instead of deleting the resource entries outright (which would break legacy resource lookup calls), Microsoft replaced the video streams with 1-frame dummy RIFF headers. Windows 10 v1903 (May 2019 Update): System resources were decoupled from System32\shell32.dll and moved into C:\Windows\SystemResources\shell32.dll.mun, rendering shell32.dll a shell wrapper with stubbed resources. Timeline Overview Windows Version AVI Status in shell32.dll Behavior in AutoIt / Win32 Windows XP Fully Functional AVI animations played natively in Explorer and custom scripts. Windows Vista / 7 Deprecated by OS Explorer stopped using them, but third-party apps could still play the DLL resources. Windows 8 / 10 Stripped to 1-Frame Stubs Resource IDs exist, but video frames are zeroed out or reduced to 1 static frame. Windows 10 1903+ / 11 Moved to .mun / Empty Stubs GUICtrlCreateAvi fails to play because no playable video data exists. For modern Windows support, bundle local uncompressed .avi files alongside your script or transition to animated GIFs using GDI+. ..and the why/when above Edited August 17 by argumentum more WildByDesign 1 Follow the link to my code contribution ( and other things too ).

Moderators Melba23 Posted Thursday at 09:16 AM Moderators Posted Thursday at 09:16 AM mLipok, What is wrong with the descriptions at present - the statement is perfectly correct for both functions? The difference is the level within the TreeView at which the search is conducted: - _GUICtrlTreeView_GetNextSibling() - takes the handle of an item as a parameter and looks at that level - _GUICtrlTreeView_GetNextChild() - takes the handle of a child as a parameter and looks at that level Sibling in English means "brother/sister" (i.e. same generation) whereas Child is a generation lower.

mLipok Posted Thursday at 09:59 AM Posted Thursday at 09:59 AM (edited) Thanks for your answer. According to: 44 minutes ago, Melba23 said: _GUICtrlTreeView_GetNextSibling() - takes the handle of an item as a parameter and looks at that level I agree that: Quote Returns the next item at the same level as the specified item looks perfectly fine in my understanding. But for this case: 44 minutes ago, Melba23 said: _GUICtrlTreeView_GetNextChild() - takes the handle of a child as a parameter and looks at that level This descripion Quote Returns the next item at the same level as the specified item is for me a little misleading. After your explanations I would rather expect a description like this Quote Returns the next item at sub level relative to the specified item ps. Perhaps it is a matter of a different way of thinking, shaped by the language we use every day—but that is precisely how I “perceive” the translation of this description in relation to these two distinct functions.
