So Added all the additional libraries but still get error in the output:

warning LNK4272: library machine type 'x64' conflicts with target machine type 'x86'

This means that glfw3.lib you’re using is built for 64-bit code. But the code you are linking is built as 32-bit code - the Win32 selection on Platform drop-down means you’re looking at 32-bit build. Either switch to x64 platform to build 64-bit code. Or get 32-bit glfw3.lib file if you want to build 32-bit executable.

Thank you so much, I accidently downloaded the 64-bit code instead of the 32-bit. Thanks once again :smiley:
