+These `.winmd` files provide the default metadata for the Windows API. This is used to
+generate the `windows` and `windows-sys` crates and are loaded using the `windows-metadata` crate's
+`File::with_default` function when reading metadata directly. As with everything else in this repo,
+the `.winmd` files in this folder are licensed via MIT or Apache-2.0.
