use `COINIT_DISABLE_OLE1DDE` with `CoInitializeEx()`
It appears that OLE 1.0 is not utilized, so it should be beneficial to set this flag.
From "Initializing the COM Library":
... it is a good idea to set the COINIT_DISABLE_OLE1DDE flag in the dwCoInit parameter. Setting this flag avoids some overhead associated with Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) 1.0, an obsolete technology.
