22.1 robot not loading dlls
22.1 robot requires 3 DLL's which are manually installed in 22.1 robot studio installation directory as part of robot dev and build (C:\Program Files (x86)\Pegasystems\Pega Robot Studio v22\)
However when robot is built and deployed the package is not created in the Appdata/Local/pegsystems folder as per 19.1 build. It was in this local directory that the dll's were created which the 19.1 runtime package then referenced
When running the package on a 22.1 runtime device the robot functionality which needs to consume the dll's does not work. The only way we can get the robot to work is to manually install the dll's in the robot runtime installation diectory
Obviously this creates issues for us as we can't manually install the dll's on 1000+ bot devices in the business
Is there a development/build solution to this problem which doesn't require and additional component to the 22.1 runtime package to install the dll's after runtime software installation

@RichardB3397During development in Studio, place your DLLs and any of their dependencies in %AppData%\Pegasystems\PublicAssemblies. When you deploy your package that uses these, they should be automatically included in the package and thus loaded by Runtime. There should not be a need to copy them to each machine. If you do have an assembly that isn't getting added into the package automatically, you can manually add it by selecting "File-->Add-->Advanced-->Deployable file".
