| Directory | Description |
| ActiveDesktop | The IActiveDesktop interface allows a client program to manage the desktop items and wallpaper on a local computer. |
| Component Categories | The ICatInformation interface provides methods for obtaining information
about the categories implemented or required by a certain class, as well as information about the categories registered on a given machine. The ICatRegister interface provides methods for registering and unregistering component category information in the Registry. This includes both the human-readable names of categories and the categories implemented/required by a given component or class. |
| Progress |
The IProgressDialog interface is exported by the progress dialog box object.
This object is a generic way to show a user how an operation is progressing. It is typically used when deleting, uploading, copying, moving, or downloading large numbers of files. The progress dialog box object creates a modeless dialog box and allows the client to set its title, animation, text lines, and progress bar. The object then handles updating on a background thread and allows the user to cancel the operation. Optionally, it estimates the time remaining until the operation is complete and displays the information as a line of text. |
| Taskbar | The ITaskbarList interface is used to control the taskbar. It allows you to dynamically add items to the taskbar, remove items from the taskbar, and activate items on the taskbar. |
