Could not load library SHLWAPI.dll from the AppleMobileDeviceSupport directory

My phone XR has been locked after a normal restart, probably due to Memory Full, or hardware problem, stuck in apple logo.

After the xr drained battery i could set it in dfu, but connecting to itunes to update goes in ERROR 14.

In the log i see

_AMDNotifyHook (thread 18596): Could not load library SHLWAPI.dll from the AppleMobileDeviceSupport directory, C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\\SHLWAPI.dll

and

_AMDNotifyHook (thread 18596): Could not load library WININET.dll from the AppleMobileDeviceSupport directory, C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\\WININET.dll.

I have already tried to unistall itunes to download again ipsw to use older ipsw

Now i didn't find in this Reset the Lockdown folder in iTunes - Apple Support

But in any case i suppose it is not applicable in my case because the iphone i could not turn on.

How can i do ?

Thanks a lot for your support i don't want to reset the phone no backup available
