Where can I find Direc3D9Ex and DXGI Interop Helper and Sample ?

Question
-
Hi,
I'm searching for the "Direc3D9Ex and DXGI Interop Helper and Sample" referenced on the MSDN article "Surface Sharing Between Windows Graphics APIs" . All urls related to D3D9ExDXGISharedSurf are redirected to a page telling "The archive gallery has been retired".
Is there anywhere else I could get this sample ?
Thanks

Thank you for looking at my question. The page you linked would contain my answer. However, the links referring to sample code within that page are dead. Is there anywhere else I can get access to those samples ? Is there anywhere I can report a dead link on MSDN pages ?
Hi Jvallie1,
Firstly I should say sorry for the dead link provided for you. I forget to check that. Very sorry about that.
After checking I think you could report the dead link on MSDN page through contacting with this address: ArchiveInfo@microsoft.com
Hope this can help you.
Best Regards,
May

Hi,
Thanks for posting here.
Just as Pradish suggested, you can get more information from this forum.
In addition, the information below for your reference.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ee913554(v=vs.85).aspx
Interoperability between Direct3D 9Ex and DXGI based APIs
Direct3D 9Ex APIs included the notion of surface sharing to allow other APIs to read from the shared surface. In order to share reading and writing to a Direct3D 9Ex shared surface, you must add manual synchronization to the application itself. To ease this process and improve efficiency and accuracy in surface sharing synchronization, helper source code is provided at MSDN Code Gallery for Direct3D 9Ex and DXGI-based API interoperability at http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/D3D9ExDXGISharedSurf.

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee913554.aspx still lists http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/d3d9exdxgisharedsurf as the URL for "Direct3D9Ex and DXGI Shared Surface Queue" and the link is still dead.
Some searching shows http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/D3D9ExDXGISharedSurf as an alternate link, but it also is dead. Archive.org is able to show the main page for this link (unlike the code.msdn link above) but the Download page doesn't work.
I've looked over 100+ search results for "DXGI" on http://xboxforums.create.msdn.com/forums/27.aspx but none of them are the desired project.
I've also reported this to ArchiveInfo@microsoft.com but the address bounces.
Update: https://github.com/Microsoft/WPFDXInterop contains DXGI <-> D3D9Ex surface interop code that perhaps is similar to what the dead link would have showed.
