DLL, or Dynamic Link Library, files are compiled files. To edit them without the source code, you will need to perform something called "reverse engineering" for which you'll need SDKs (software development kits), IDE's (Integrated Development Environment) and other software tools. You'll also have to be able to read and understand cryptic code. This is not something you can do with just notepad.
Also, there may be legal issues involved with reverse engineering (in that it may be strictly forbidden by the license agreement for whatever it is you are attempting to decompile).
Modifying a DLL can render the program that uses it completely unusable. If this is a system DLL used by Windows, it can render your system useless (usually until said DLL is replaced with a non-corrupt version).

You can't change an DLL file if all you have is the DLL file.
You would need the source code the DLL was compiled from. If you had this you could change the code and recompile the DLL.

DLL files contain executable machine code. The only way to safely modify them is to rebuild them from the original source code, which typically only the original software engineers have on hand.

If you are a fully trained programmer, and know how to disassemble a program file, do NOT touch them. One error can result in the system stopping. Maybe totally trashed.

Short answer : you can't.
If you have a compatibility problem, uninstall the wrong ones, get the correct ones from the editor of your software and install them instead.
Wish you luck !
