Indeed from the `LoadLibrary` documentation If the string specifies a module name without a path and the file name extension is omitted, the function appends the default library extension ".DLL" to the module name. To prevent the function from appending ".DLL" to the module name, include a trailing point character (.) in the module name string. so a trailing `.` character on `rando` might equally resolve the problem? ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/24694#issuecomment-2860411482
