ReleaseCapture
The ReleaseCapture function releases the mouse capture from a window in the current thread and
restores normal mouse input processing. A window that has captured the mouse
receives all mouse input, regardless of the position of the cursor, except when a
mouse button is clicked while the cursor hot spot is in the window of another
thread.
BOOL ReleaseCapture(VOID)
Parameters
This function has no parameters.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero.
Remarks
An application calls this function after calling the SetCapture function.
Windows 95: Calling this function causes the window that is losing the mouse capture to
receive a WM_CAPTURECHANGED message.
