My app asp.net core on my desktop works fine. But when I deploy on my Windows Server 2007 R2 I got this error.
Application startup exception: System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'api-ms-win-core-registry-l1-1-0.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)

I had the same question and problem. The cause of the error for me was I develop on Windows 10 and deploy to Window 2008 R2.
The fix is to edit your project.json runtimes to win7-x64.
Original:
"runtimes": {
"win10-x64": {}
},
Fixed:
"runtimes": {
"win7-x64": {}
},
I did try to have both runtimes, but my publish would fail.
Make sure your "Target Runtime" publish setting is set to win7-x64:
