They are generally Native Applications - which means they are written to run in machine code rather than the .NET IL.

Are they better? For some things, yes. For others, no. There is a huge learning curve associated with native app code - it has evolved over several decades to the current point, so it isn't as clear cut as the .NET framework is.

Generally nowadays, they are written in C++ and can get better and faster access to the lower level stuff.

Horses for courses I'm afraid - google will help you find out more.

No - it's not "a book" it's "a book" on C++ (or more likely two, possibly three), plus "a book" on Windows messaging, plus "a book" on MFC, plus....

For some kind of application like antivirus, audio and video editing software and some games, you have to go at the low level to get adequate performance. For example, because of garbage collection, .NET might sometime do short pauses which must not happen in real-time scenario.

In general, a C++ can be more performant than a C# program particulary for some operations like image au audio manipulation. But, on the other hand, it is much harder to write safe code and in general it take much more time to create a similar application in native C++ than in C#.

And for many applications, there is also the possibility to do a mixed-mode application. Thta might make sense for example for a image editor.
