Windows UWP release execution errors

[asata]

Added Whisper.net to the Windows UWP project.
When in debug mode, it runs fine.
When in release mode, it fails to run with the error below.

I installed Whisper.net with nuget and it was working fine before the installation.

Is there a solution to this problem?

Hello @asata ,

Probably the native dll is not copied by Windows UWP release build. if you navigate to bin/release, can you find the native dlls there?

[asata]

Thank you for your response. @sandrohanea

Yes, there is a Whisper.net.dll inside the bin/release folder.
There is also whisper.dll in the runtimes folder.

The difference with bin/debug is that there is no Whisper.net.dll inside the bin/release/AppX folder.
If you add the Whisper.net.dll file to that folder and run it, you get the same error.
