Thanks, but we'd need an example of such a PNG image to investigate.
Can you send one such image, which works with w32-use-native-image-API
nil, but not when it is non-nil?
In any case, it is perfectly okay to reset w32-use-native-image-API to
nil if the native image APIs fail to process an image you want to see.
That's why we support both modes.
