Library not found
I have two doubts: 1 - I'm trying to run a 32 bit dll in a 64 bit node instalation, it's possible? 2 - I'm receiving the message "Library not found" even though the path is correct, any idea why this could happen?

I don't think that's going to work. Is there any chance you can use a 64 bit dll or a 32 bit node?

The path string is passed directly to the underlying dynamic library loading code. On Windows (just guessing Windows since you mentioned dll), this is: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/libloaderapi/nf-libloaderapi-loadlibraryw
Are you using absolute paths? That may help.
1 I'm working on getting the 64 bit version of the dll, but finding problems compiling it because it's a really old project, hopefully will get it.
2 I'm using const libPath = "${__dirname}\\mydll.dll"; I'm sure it's the right path because when it's logged onto the console, I click on it and the dll is opened on vs code.
My guess is that, because it's a 32 bit version dll it's not recognized.

That's my guess as well. I don't have a Windows machine handy to test, but maybe you can try loading a different dll that's 64 bit to see if that works?
You might have some success using 32-bit node?
