A website that holds a ton of free to use DLL files for anyone who needs them. Does such a thing exist? Do you have a favorite/recommended one?

Don't go getting DLLs of unknown origin. I'd recommend none.

Hence my asking for a repository. A source for known trusted DLL's.

There are many, just search for a particular DLL and you'd get many results.

But the thing is they aren't for programmers, they are for end-users who don't know anything about compiling programs. If you are a programmer, just get your DLLs from the SDK or build them from the source if available, one of those options is always available.

i get them from SDKs or from the appropriate vc_redist that contains them. DO NOT TRUST anyone, including github

 

google the dll and add sdk or redist to the search to find what contains what you need.

My resources are limited. You must ask the right questions

True, but the thing to note is that GitHub is just a hosting platform, so it depends really. If the project is officially hosted there then the DLLs are trustworthy, if it is some 3rd-party mirror then buyer beware ;)

A loose comparison is Wikipedia, you shouldn't trust it, but you should check the sources and if they are trustworthy, then Wikipedia is too.
