- The '-mof' switch (to generate XP-compatible ETW helpers) is considered to be deprecated and will be removed in a future version of mc.exe. Removing this switch will cause the generated ETW helpers to expect Vista or later.
- The '-A' switch (to generate .BIN files using ANSI encoding instead of Unicode) is considered to be deprecated and will be removed in a future version of mc.exe. Removing this switch will cause the generated .BIN files to use Unicode string encoding.
- The behavior of the '-A' switch has changed. Prior to Windows 1607 Anniversary Update SDK, when using the -A switch, BIN files were encoded using the build system's ANSI code page. In the Windows 1607 Anniversary Update SDK, mc.exe's behavior was inadvertently changed to encode BIN files using the build system's OEM code page. In the 19H1 SDK, mc.exe's previous behavior has been restored and it now encodes BIN files using the build system's ANSI code page. Note that the -A switch is deprecated, as ANSI-encoded BIN files do not provide a consistent user experience in multi-lingual systems.
