There is nothing to link to.

I highly recommend to just copy these to the Release and Debug folders
for your application.

You could also put one of these in your system PATH variable however
this can lead to random crashes of your application if you mix release
and debug in the same application. You can not safely use Visual
Studio Release dlls in a debug application or Debug dlls in a release
application. Both of these will cause you to have more than 1 heap.
And that leads to a situation where if you allocate memory in 1 heap
and try to free it in a second heap this will corrupt one or both
heaps causing your application to crash on an allocation or
deallocation some time in the future.
