differences between .DLL and .EXE files:
.EXE (Executable File):
Purpose: This is a file that can be executed to run a program. It contains a program that can be launched directly by the user.
Functionality: When you double-click an .EXE file, it runs a process and can perform tasks independently.
Usage: Commonly used for applications and games that users interact with directly.
.DLL (Dynamic Link Library):
Purpose: A .DLL file contains code and data that can be used by multiple programs simultaneously. It is not directly executable.
Functionality: It provides functions and procedures that applications can call upon. This allows for code reusability and modular programming.
Usage: Often used to share functionality among different applications, like common libraries in Windows.

.DLL (Dynamic Link Library)
Purpose: Contains shared code and resources for multiple programs.
Execution: Cannot be run directly; must be called by an executable.
Usage: Used for libraries, plugins, and components.
.EXE (Executable)
Purpose: Contains a program that can be executed.
Execution: Can be run directly by the user or the OS.
Usage: Used for standalone applications and software.
