I'm working on upgrading a C++ DLL project (Debug, x86) from VS2008 to VS2019. While doing so, got many different link error along the way and got it resolved by adding the dependencies - ucrtd.lib, vcruntimed.lib and msvcrtd.lib. But currently stuck with the following error -

4>msvcrtd.lib(utility.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol ___vcrt_initialize referenced in function ___scrt_initialize_crt
4>msvcrtd.lib(utility.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol ___vcrt_uninitialize referenced in function ___scrt_initialize_crt
4>msvcrtd.lib(utility.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol ___vcrt_uninitialize_critical referenced in function ___scrt_dllmain_uninitialize_critical

4>msvcrtd.lib(utility.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol ___acrt_thread_detach referenced in function ___scrt_dllmain_crt_thread_detach

I have Ignore All Default Libraries set to Yes and Show Progress to /VERBOSE. The log does show it's picking the correct version of the msvcrtd.lib. Additionally, Runtime Library is set to /MDd.

Any help is much appreciated. Please let me know in case of any additional queries.

Thanks and Regards,
