Gstreamer is not working (Windows)

So, I'm new to GStreamer and I've taken the safe route by downloading the pre-built binaries from https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/download/ for windows. I believe I've installed it fully by downloading MSVC runtime and development versions for VS 2019. But when I try to run a GStreamer command I always get something similar to what is shown below.


Below is a snippet of the issue, when I run 'gst-device-monitor-1.0' via command line to access my built-in webcam as I'm running this on a work laptop.

I might be missing an environment variable or path. These are my current system variables, I've set:

[cid:b300c58c-f4e8-4ee5-ae1c-b07d76f967c4]


My current PATH, I've set:

[cid:bd93f8fd-fdd2-4031-bb8b-b712703668de]


I was told the issue could be strawberryperl being above gstreamer in the path, but I've changed that since and the issue is still persistent.


System Info:

Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
