ChangeWindowMessageFilter is a function in the Microsoft Windows operating system that changes the way that a window processes certain types of messages. It is typically used to prevent certain types of messages from being sent to a window, or to modify the behavior of the window in response to a message.

For example, a program may use ChangeWindowMessageFilter to block mouse events from being sent to a window, or to modify the way that the window responds to keyboard input.

ChangeWindowMessageFilter is typically called from within the window procedure for a window, and is passed a message identifier and a message parameter.

The function returns a value indicating whether the message should be allowed to be sent to the window or not.
