Description

Is a legitimate call :)

I made that work (after setting to "no exceptions" in project properties) and by replacing two usages of wil::com_ptr with Microsoft::WRL::ComPtr.

There is now the warning about not having /EHsc, emanating from ppltasks.h , but that is a much larger subject.

I assume now I need to install WV2 RT to make it work.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the sample project properties and the two usages of wil::com_ptr mentioned in the issue, then inspect the ppltasks.h warning and the Microsoft::WRL::ComPtr replacement context. The issue does not specify a file, reproducible failure, or acceptance criteria, so the expected completed change is unclear.
