Troubleshoot a setup project

I'm trying to create a setup project for an C# application I've made using GMaps. (Target Framework is 4.7.2)
I have added GMaps to my project from NuGet.
Everything seems to work fine when following the steps of the setup Wizard, and all the dependencies are detected.

However, after the application is installed on the new computer (without Visual Installed) the application it couldn't access (or find?) the GMap dependencies even though they are in the installation folder. I have modified my code to check the presence of the dependencies and it seems it cannot find thoses even when I install the app on my computer.

I already tried finding an answer from this page https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/visualstudio/visual-studio-2010/kz0ke5xt(v=vs.100)

What can I do to identify the origin of the problem ?
Could it be something like a path variable I have to set somewhere ? Or is there an action I have to do during the installation ?

    I wrote a smaller program (still calling GMap) giving me the same error, this time I've got the exeption raised by the system.
    Here is the error message

    So, it seems I have solved my problem. The missing library SQLite.Interop.dll wasn't installed along with the others by using NuGet.
    To fix this I used the solution on this forum : unable-to-load-dll-sqlite-interop-dll

    I pasted the following lines inside the .csproj file: 

    <PropertyGroup>   
    <ContentSQLiteInteropFiles>true</ContentSQLiteInteropFiles>  
    <CopySQLiteInteropFiles>false</CopySQLiteInteropFiles>  
    <CleanSQLiteInteropFiles>false</CleanSQLiteInteropFiles>  
    <CollectSQLiteInteropFiles>false</CollectSQLiteInteropFiles>  
</PropertyGroup>

    And after that I installed again the NuGet packages of SQLite.
