Question

I used the precompiled version of GLFW for windows. I use netbeans and i can't resolve this error.

The GLFW has two versions of libraries - static and dynamic (DLL). If you want to link with the static library, then you won't have to include the glfw3dll (which is a DLL link library) into the list of libraries. Please see the Building programs that use GLFW for more info. They also mention other libraries you need to link to.
