Please see this post:
VTK - Migrating from 6.1 to 8.2
I setup all settings, and I get only 3 errors, and I cannot get rid of them for days:

cand you give a hint to gt away of these links errors ?

Answer 1

Link your binary with dbghelp.lib
e.g. add something like the following line into your CMakeLists.txt if you are using CMake
target_link_libraries(${project_name} PRIVATE dbghelp.lib)
or add it into into project (Linker/Input/Additional Dependencies) if you are not using CMake
or the add the following into main.cpp somewhere below includes
#pragma comment(lib, "dbghelp.lib") //untested
Possibly turning off VTK error logging in VTK CMake may help as well (not sure)
