If path to directory which contains application .jar file contains non-ASCII characters (e.g. Korean), it fails to start silently.
By executing the app with command line, we get this error stacktrace.

Turns out it could happen under certain circumstances. For Windows, it's either you have selected different language for System locale, or you have turned on Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support under Region > Administrative > Change system locale... settings. You should tick it OFF. See the reference.

This commit 5e1d78c introduces a fallback step to kick in if the system fails to find DLLs for this reason. It should hopefully resolve the issue for everyone using this product and therefore I'm closing this thread.
