Prelude
zlib.lib got issue.
the cause behind this error message.
This happens when you link an .obj or .lib that contains code created by an earlier version of the compiler. Which of course would be common if you downloaded a binary for opencv_ffmpeg instead of the source. You can turn the linker option off but then you'll still have a CRT version incompatibility that can byte. Rebuild the library from source. – Hans Passant May 15 at 13:01
It can also be caused by, as the error states, modules for which the linker can't find safe exception handlers. Assembly language modules in particular - as discussed in other answers. There is some info about this here. – Nick Westgate Jul 5 '17 at 22:17

As @kreuzerkrieg pointed out, the problem is in the commit 5481269, specifically on line 30. The code is trying to define IOWIN32_USING_WINRT_API if and only if the target is a Metro app, by using the test:
However, that will be true for both desktop and Metro applications. To test for only Metro applications, and not desktop applications, the following will work:

This is not a full-blown article - just a quick HOWTO for people who require the latest version of zLib and want to use it from a language (like classic VB) that requires a standard WinAPI interface..
By default, zLib uses C calling conventions (CDECL). Gilles Vollant has helpfully provided an STDCALL version of zLib in the past, but his site only provides version 1.2.5, which dates back to January 2012. zLib is currently on version 1.2.8.
Gilles has contributed his WAPI fixes to the core zLib distribution so that anyone can compile it themselves. To do this, you will need to download:

Source Code and FAQs
zlib source code on GitHub.
zlib 1.2.11 is a general purpose data compression library. All the code is thread safe. The data format used by the zlib library is described by RFCs (Request for Comments) 1950 to 1952 in the files http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1950 (zlib format), rfc1951 (deflate format) and rfc1952 (gzip format).
All functions of the compression library are documented in the file zlib.h (volunteer to write man pages welcome, contact zlib@gzip.org).
A usage example of the library is given in the file test/example.c which also tests that the library is working correctly. Another example is given in the file test/minigzip.c. The compression library itself is composed of all source files in the root directory.
read this length readme.
To compile all files and run the test program, follow the instructions given at the top of Makefile.in. In short "./configure; make test", and if that goes well, "make install" should work for most flavors of Unix. For Windows, use one of the special makefiles in win32/ or contrib/vstudio/ .
Notes for some targets: - For Windows DLL versions, please see win32/DLL_FAQ.txt
Free software is like pizza - when it’s good, it’s very good. When it’s bad, it can still be pretty good. This article takes a look at zlib, the free data compression library written by Mark Adler and Jean-loup Gailly. Like the very finest pizza, zlib is exceptional.
In this article I will first give a quick overview of what zlib is, and where it came from. I’ll then discuss the existing interface, and look at the wrapper class I created for my own use. Finally, I’ll talk about how I integrated zlib into a a command line test program and a general purpose file compression OCX. After reading this article you should feel comfortable using zlib for many, if not all, of your data compression needs..
zlib’s interface is confined to just a few simple function calls. The entire state of a given compression or decompression session is encapsulated in a C structure of type z_stream, whose definition is shown in Figure 1.
Using the library to compress or decompress a file or other data object consists of three main steps:
Where can I get a Windows DLL version? The zlib sources can be compiled without change to produce a DLL. See the file win32/DLL_FAQ.txt in the zlib distribution. Pointers to the precompiled DLL are found in the zlib web site at http://zlib.net/ ..
Where's the zlib documentation (man pages, etc.)? It's in zlib.h . Examples of zlib usage are in the files test/example.c and test/minigzip.c, with more in examples/ .

A Massively Spiffy Yet Delicately Unobtrusive Compression Library (Also Free, Not to Mention Unencumbered by Patents).
We often get questions about how the deflate() and inflate() functions should be used. Users wonder when they should provide more input, when they should use more output, what to do with a Z_BUF_ERROR, how to make sure the process terminates properly, and so on. So for those who have read zlib.h (a few times), and would like further edification, below is an annotated example in C of simple routines to compress and decompress from an input file to an output file using deflate() and inflate() respectively. The annotations are interspersed between lines of the code. So please read between the lines. We hope this helps explain some of the intricacies of zlib..

libpng is the official PNG reference library. It supports almost all PNG features, is extensible, and has been extensively tested for over 23 years. The home site for development versions (i.e., may be buggy or subject to change or include experimental features) is https://libpng.sourceforge.io/, and the place to go for questions about the library is the png-mng-implement mailing list.
libpng is available as ANSI C (C89) source code and requires zlib 1.0.4 or later (1.2.5 or later recommended for performance and security reasons). The current public release, libpng 1.6.37, fixes the use-after-free security vulnerability noted below, as well as an ARM NEON memory leak in the palette-to-RGB(A) expansion code (png_do_expand_palette())..

Specific questions on ZLIB_WIN32 macro
I'd also be interested as to the "why do we need ZLIB_WINAPI ?",, and what version of ZLIB this applies to? I have been building ZLIB as a dependency of CURL for several years and not yet hit on this need.
* define ZLIB_WINAPI.
* Caution: the standard ZLIB1.DLL is NOT compiled using ZLIB_WINAPI.

ZLIB for Windows expects ZLIB_WINAPI to be defined #293.
I can't, for the love of God, to static link the ZLIB libs. I have been struggling for a couple hours now with no success. Well, I have followed this tutorial and successfuly compiled both zlibstat.lib and zlibwapi.lib for 32 bits. After setting up my project to use the ZLIB folder with the libraries (Linker > General > Additional Library Directories) and setting zlibwapi.lib (only) as an dependency (Linker > Input > Additional Dependencies) I got it to work, however, that was a dynamic link (I need to distribute my application with the ZLIB dll). I usually use dynamic linking on Debug and static on Release.
I have tried looking for what the hell is the zlibstat.lib and whats it used for, if not for static linking, assuming the "stat" suffix.
Are there any preprocessor to be added into my project, something like ZLIB_STATIC or something, to use static linking of ZLIB or should I have never removed the ZLIB_WINAPI from the zlibstat project, just like the above link told me to do? Is it impossible to static link ZLIB (then, whats zlibstat.lib for?)?
I have a zlib linker error. Spent several hours to try and solve the problem but nothing so far. Zlib was built using vs2010, win32 release. My project is using the same..

ANSWER: If you are using the VS2010 solution provided in contrib/ be aware that it's bugged. The zlibstat project defines ZLIB_WINAPI which according to zlib FAQ is used to switch on the STDCALL convention. Just remove it from the project settings and recompile the lib.
I am trying to use zlibstat.lib generated by building solution in zlib-1.2.8\contrib\vstudio\vc10\zlibvc.sln It generated a zlibstat.lib but when I link it with another project I get the following errors:
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _uncompress
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _compress2 referenced in function...
error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _crc32 referenced in function .....
ANSWER: For anyone coming across this question: I have just solved this myself minutes ago and I personally think that this is a small error in the 1.2.8 sources. The 1.2.8 release contains a VS2010 project to build the zlibstat.lib and altough one would expect a static library file given the name, the macro ZLIB_WINAPI is defined which produces a dynamically linked lib file.
So without further ado: To compile zlibstat.lib in VS2010: Simply go to the project's proprerties, go to C/C++->Preprocessor and remove the ZLIB_WINAPI macro from the Preprocessor Definitions
I won't say anything about the zlib library and libpng. Both Du Niang and Google can tell you. Here mainly records how to use vs2010 to compile and use these two libraries under windows.
This document describes the design, the rationale, and the usage of the official DLL build of zlib, named ZLIB1.DLL. If you have general questions about zlib, you should see the file "FAQ" found in the zlib distribution, or at the following location: http://www.gzip.org/zlib/zlib_faq.html.
this is the right approach from a chinese guy.
Compilation and use of Zlib libraries.
Due to a project, the zlib library is used under windows. The existing libraries are all release versions. If the project is debugged, it will cause a lot of symbol errors, so I have to recompile the zlib library myself..
上面写错了。首先要在Zlib.h头文件添加上ZLIB_WINAPI的宏定义（只有在vs2010的win32项目时候奥）； 然后再 项目->属性->链接器->输入->忽略特定的默认库，把libcmt.lib，加上就ok了。
