Dependency walker with kernel32.dll on windows 10

问题

i tried to open kernel32.dll using dependency walker on windows 10. i got the following error and warning:

Error: At least one required implicit or forwarded dependency was not found

Warning: At least one delay-load dependency module was not found.

Screenshot:

I'm running windows 10 32Bit, and the dependency walker is also 32Bit. Also, I'm running dependency walker as Admin.

回答1:

This has nothing to do with delay loads. These are MS API-sets - essentially, an extra level of call indirection introduced gradually since windows 7. Dependency walker development seemingly halted long before that, and it can't handle API sets properly.

So these are all false negatives and nothing to worry about. You're not missing anything.

Here it is in more words.

Edit: Only in Oct 2017 did someone finally try to fill this gap. Meet Dependencies by lucasg. I've only briefly fiddled with it until now, but it handles API sets well and is at least very worthy of attention.

回答2:

There's a reimplementation of dependency walker that is meant to implement for the later features of the dll mechanisms. Have a look at
