> Microsoft has only kept the documentation for the DX8 version of EnumDevices left online

This saddens me. Who knows how much valuable info has been lost. I recall back in the days of MSDN, we had docs back to early Windows, and it was a wonderful historical record. Today's Docs site seems to keep info only for a few versions.

Anybody who still has MSDN Library CDs from the 90s, archive them at archive.org NOW!

Also of note Valve's Proton only goes back to DX8. Versions prior to that were considered not worth it.

Why share something which you can sell for exorbitant prices? /s
