Hi!
I've been using Apollo as a dependency to my own extension - an LDtk parser.
It has worked just fine for me and a friend who manually added Apollo to their project in order to use my extension.
Yet, others who have done the same in their project, have gotten an error that says: "Apollo extension couldn't load".
Two of the people for whom Apollo couldn't load for, installed it manually as part of getting my extension to work.
Another person for whom it couldn't load simply cloned the project I was working in - and Apollo is loading just fine for me.
Note: My own extension is pure GML. No DLL craziness.
I also had one of my pals test the extension in isolation.
Peculiarly enough, ApolloV1 worked just fine for them. I had them run a project containing V2 and a simple demo
but the same error occurred for them as in the bigger project.
Here's the compile log from the failed V2 test run:

I'd be happy to provide any further information to figure out what went wrong.
If the problem lies with GMS1.X, and if downgrading to V1 doesn't sacrifice too much I'd consider that as well, but I'm not sure what the penalty for that would be.
Basic specs of the user who tested V1 and V2:
The other two who only tried running a project containing V2:
