My understanding is that none of the core Microsoft apps like Office were built on MFC. In MFC projects I worked on, generally the simple stuff was built with MFC and anything more complex was built with the win32 API.
- stiray 4y agoActually MFC uses windows api, but this does not change anything, it is still 1997 API. And we are in year 2023 with worse UI, i would expect it to be in reverse.

MFC had its set of problems which were related to things like passing messages between windows, but all those are on another level.
