How are you building the project exactly? We need:

• Version of Visual Studio used.
• Debug/Release?
• Version of libigl (are you trying the latest dev branch)
• Are you compiling for x64? If not, try that.

i use visual studio 2019, x64-Debug , i tried both master and dev branch

[Haitham96]

there is a tutorial how to run this project on windows using visual studio?

Can you try to compile the example project with this version of libigl?

Hi @Haitham96 ,
looks like an issue with your VS installaltion?! In VS2015 the C runtime library (CRT) has been changed (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/crt-library-features). Those missing symboles are functions implemented in CRT. Is your VS2019 fresh installed or an upgraded one?
I have not been able to reproduce your error.
Both Release x64 and Debug x64 with dev branch of libigl complie and run as expected on my machine with VS2019 (16.1.3 and 16.4.6).
