“The application has failed to start because cxcore210.dll was not found”. Why would this happen?

Question

I\'m having trouble running basic opencv scripts on my new machine. I\'ve installed opencv2.1. I am linking these files from the linker:

C:\\OpenCV2.1\\

Answer 1

I had the same problem:

I configure correctly the properties of my project, like 100 tutorials says: But never work, so i try copy the dll to the application directory and works. I dont know why the linker dont see the dlls

I just copy the cv210.lib ,cvaux210.lib, cxcore210.lib ,highgui210.lib
