Windows Server may also not let you access DLL files that aren't in known "safe" locations, and/or it may require you to run the server as administrator.
 
Still a no go. Ran everything as Admin.

Press any key to continue . . .
 
I would see if it will run from somewhere other than the Downloads folder, like Program Files. Server can be picky about what can be run from where. I don't have a spare machine with it to test at the moment, just Win10.

Still a no go. However reading the Crash File it shows that the .net framework it is using is the 4.0.30319.42000 and not the 4.8 or the 4.7.2 . Both do show installed on my server.
 
Maybe you need a newer version of zlibwapi64.dll? Mine says it's version 1.2.11.0

I'm grasping at straws because the error clearly states it cannot read zlibwapi64.dll and we know it's there. I think that's a red herring because the underlying cause will end up being a DLL dependency error and not the obvious DLL we're looking at.

Try googling "dll 0x8007007E" and you'll see what I mean.
 
Argh - I'll bet that's what it is! I remembered that it was a missing redistributable; I just didn't remember the right one!


That did it. I reinstalled windows server 2016. Installed only 4.7.2 .NET and then installed the vcredist x64 and x86. Now we will wait and see how i crash it next. HAHA
