After rebooting I just noticed that something has changed. The good news is that the dlls are not missing anymore, somehow they seem to have been copied despite the reported failure. The bad news is that ForgeUI still can't start because of missing dependencies for c10_cuda.dll. These are not missing files though, I am not sure but I think it's about bad versions of these files resulting in missing functions it can't import from these.

Perform the scan below.
  1. Download the attachment fixlist.txt and save it to your desktop.
  2. Right-click on FRST64.exe and select "Run as administrator".
  3. Press the Fix button.
  4. The tool will now process fixlist.txt.
  5. If for some reason the tool needs a restart, please make sure you let the system restart normally. After that let the tool complete its run.
  6. When finished, a log called Fixlog.txt will appear in the same directory the tool is run from.
  7. Attach the logfile Fixlog.txt to your next reply.

I'm losing hope.

According to Dependency Walker the function missing from kernel32.dll is "ResolveDelayLoadedAPI" and according to what I read it may only be available on Windows 8 and above.

According to the devs of pytorch the only thing they changed is they started using Visual Studio 2019 instead of 2017, which should not break the compatibility with Windows 7, yet it did.

So I tried "updating" the kernel with VxKex and nt61 but it did not change anything.
 
It is already installed. I tried anyway, choosing "repair" but it did not change anything. :(

Ask them for an older version, build with VS2017 so you can test that.
 
Fixed at last. It was indeed an incompatibility with Windows 7 and new pytorch. I fixed it adding python.exe to VxKex.
Thank you again for your help. (y)
 
Great. Thank you for the feedback.

Follow the instructions below to cleanup the tools and logfiles used in this thread.
Rename the file FRST64.exe to uninstall.exe and run it. This will remove all files and folders created by FRST and the tool itself.
Reboot the machine to complete.
You may remove all other tools and log files.

Thread marked as solved.

Take care.
