How system finds DLLs

[kapax5]

After linking C++ project with specific .libs and when I run it, how does a system find the corresponding DLLs if they are not in the same directory? There should be some rules for that, as far as I know.

I believe the answer is right here[^] in a document titled Dynamic-Link Library Search Order.
