For context: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/cpp/structured-exception-handling-c-cpp?view=msvc-170 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/cpp/structured-excepti... > Structured exception handling (SEH) is a Microsoft extension to C and C++ to handle certain exceptional code situations, such as hardware faults, gracefully. Although Windows and Microsoft C++ support SEH, we recommend that you use ISO-standard C++ exception handling in C++ code. It makes your code more portable and flexible. However, to maintain existing code or for particular kinds of programs, you still might have to use SEH.
