No, that's the too much shortened version. The correct version but is: Go see how many DLLs exist outside of the DLL search path. CWD DLL blocking does NOT break all those apps! Apps which install their DLLs into their own application directory won't notice CWD blocking at all. And apps which break can be easily fixed: [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\application.exe] "Path"=... exists for more than 15 years now.
