libvlc.dll
file is included in the system'sPATH
environment variable. Adding the directory to thePATH
variable allows the application to locate the required DLL file. You can modify thePATH
variable via the Windows System Properties or through command line using thesetx
command.Verify Dependency Installation: Check if you have properly installed the dependencies required by your application. Some applications relying on
libvlc.dll
