After the call to LoadLibrary, you must check to see whether the function succeeded. You can do so by checking whether the HINSTANCE is equal to NULL (defined as 0 in Windows.h or one of the headers Windows.h includes). If it is equal to NULL, the handle is not valid, and you must free the library.

Sometimes xlive.dll can become missing due to file corruption. File corruption is a relatively common problem, but you can easily fix the corrupted files by performing an SFC scan.

- Dynamic Link Libraries (DLL)s are like EXEs but they are not directly executable.
- But as Windows XP, Vista, and plenty of others before them are proof, Microsoft is not afraid to leave trends at the door.
- Put the DLL you made in the same directory as your new project.
