 know why it is not loaded from Tor Browser's directory.

 >   If the DLL is on the list of known DLLs for the version of Windows on
 which the application is running, the system uses its copy of the known
 DLL (and the known DLL's dependent DLLs, if any) instead of searching for
 the DLL. For a list of known DLLs on the current system, see the following
 registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
 Manager\KnownDLLs.

 None of the DLLs on that registry key matches the ones in Tor's folder.
