**System Information**
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19041-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 471.41
**Blender Version**
Broken: version: 2.82 (sub 7), branch: master, commit date: 2020-02-12 16:20, hash: `rB77d23b0bd76f`
Worked: (optional)
**Short description of error**
The problem arose only with this version of Blender, the rest work as expected:
```
C:\Program Files\Python37> ./python
Python 3.7.4 (tags/v3.7.4:e09359112e, Jul 8 2019, 20:34:20) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import bpy
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: DLL load failed: The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail.
```
This error tells me that the version of python is not correct. But `python/37/include/patchlevel.h` tells that 3.7.4 is a correct version.
**Exact steps for others to reproduce the error**
- Clone `blender-v2.82-release` branch.
- Checkout `bf-blender - Revision 62742: /tags/blender-2.82-release/lib/win64_vc15` [Blender SVN](https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/tags/blender-2.82-release/lib/win64_vc15/) in library directory.
- `make bpy`
- Copied 2.82 directory to python dir, dll's (except python3.dll) to `python_dir/Lib/site-packages/`
- Got weird message.
Here is `Build.txt` ending:

I understand that the project has been archived for a long time and maybe I made a mistake, but I will be grateful if I get feedback on possible reasons with this particular version.
