The problem is that it can't load win32cdll.dll. The dll cannot be found. Is the name correct ? Is it meant to have dll in the name twice ? Is this dll visible to your application ?

Solution 3

This might help you.
The Specified Module could not be found[^]

or this
unable to load unmanaged dll [^]

It is likely that your DLL depends on one or more DLLs that are not present.

Solution 4

Try coping your dll either in windows or windows\system32 folder. See if it works.
