Explorer.exe now calls ShellDdeInit. Progman stubs will now be started/used in Shell32. Amazingly any apps with a Progman DDE interface will also be called. Shell32 can handle all major functionality, but a running progman.exe (for example) will be able to synchronize internal values with changes made by Shell32.
This patch just adds a lot of confusion and mess. As I suggested you should start with a simple test app and see how it really supposed to work.
