Thanks for the info. I'd suggest that you adapt
release_docs/INSTALL_Windows.txt accordingly. It still reads:

The old solutions and projects found in the windows\ folder will be
maintained for legacy users until HDF5 1.10.
"""

BTW: Are the compile errors I get due to using the legacy builds scripts?
