Check wsock32.dll is in windows\system32 path,
run command 'netsh winsock reset' no help
Obviously wsock32.dll is available and reset it can not help fix the issue.

This is a windows error, and not a postgresql one. We just ask for it, even the error message is from windows.

If wsock32 can't be loaded, you have a big problem on your system. It could be many thingt - permissions, antivirus,
firewall,etc. 

You will have tol investigate that at the OS level, and contact your support there if you can't find it yourself.
