_WinAPI_ShellExecute() different or better that ShellExecute()?

I've been using ShellExecute() for some time, without knowing if there's any significant difference from _WinAPI_ShellExecute()  (other than the extra call parameter).

 

For example, are these two statements interchangeable?:

ShellExecute("C:\Downloads\", "", "", "explore")
_WinAPI_ShellExecute("C:\Downloads\", "", "", "explore")
 

Regarding the _WinAPI functions, in general, it has always looked to me like they are the "complete" set of available functions, but that several of them have AutoIt versions that are slightly simplified.

 

Is that essentially the situation?  Or is it more complicated than that.

 

Thanks for any insights.
