I’m quite confused about linking tips. Supose I have an app that uses a dll, but I do not want to use it, I want to statically link with a lib and avoid the dependency for the dll. Is it possible?

It’s impossible enough not to try if you want a solution to your problems instead of a bunch of new problems.
(I’ve managed to make something like that work a couple of times. One variant used a MemoryModule and loading from memory, another one used a heuristic to find cross-segment relocations and fix them up to re-separate code and data sections. Neither was remotely like something you may recommend to a person confused about linking tips).
