Hello,
I you went through all that checklist and nothing solved it, you should make sure VS2022 is compatible with whatever version of VS was used to generate those .lib files. VS compilers are not always retro-compatible. Check this: C++ binary compatibility 2015-2022 | Microsoft Learn If VS2013, for example, was used to build Python, you will very likely have problems compiling with VS2022.
best,
