After calling SetDllDirectory, the standard DLL search path is:
1. The directory from which the application loaded.

3. The system directory. Use the GetSystemDirectory function to get the path of this directory. The name of this directory is System32.
4. The 16-bit system directory. There is no function that obtains the path of this directory, but it is searched. The name of this directory is System.
5. The Windows directory. Use the GetWindowsDirectory function to get the path of this directory.
6. The directories that are listed in the PATH environment variable.
