if the python module is not built linking all of its dependencies statically (which it isn't by default) then you still need those dependencies. Perhaps most importantly the main libtorrent library DLL.

Hi, @arvidn, can we statically link the dependencies?

It would make the life easiier.

Hey @Skreball,

I have created libtorrent-windows-dll, please give it a shot and let me know if you still run into this issue.

Thanks :D
