Solution 1:[1]

These reported errors for GDIPLUS.DLL, GPSVC.DLL and IESHIMS.DLL are false positives. The static analysis that Dependency Walker does will sometimes report errors like this. But when you attempt to load the DLL you will find, I believe, that it loads successfully.

You do not need to download these three DLLs. You should absolutely reverse that action. Remove those files from the directory where your DLL resides.

Solution 2:[2]

All the API-MS-WIN-XXX 'missing' dll's are really API-sets (sometimes referred to as 'virtual DLLs'). OP's "Dependency walker" version just wasn't updated since before their invention (but version 2.2 should not have issues). Here are some details.
