However, the solution should be different from the one you propose. I
don't know what call of CreateProcess you are referring to specifically,
but I think they should all be changed to call CreateProcessW.

Again, whether or not _UNICODE is defined should have no effect. If it
does, it's a bug, and the solution is not to sprinkle TCHAR all over the
place.

And, with proper parametrization, then supports all SDKs?
