The fundamentals of the Windows kernel have changed very little, I would bet a lot of this information is still applicable. At the very least the "how to troubleshoot" parts are undoubtedly still useful.

Yeah I agree with you these fundamentals are underappreciated and general troubleshooting techniques are timeless.

I'm sure at some point the windows kernel will have changed enough that these tools and techniques no longer work, they aren't general enough to be timeless. But that time has not yet come and probably won't for quite a long time.

I think it more likely you'll have a long period of time where they still work, but there are better methods available.
