You need to download and install the Colorbox plugin to the root "libraries" folder (create it if it doesn't exist).

Make sure the path to the plugin file becomes: "libraries/colorbox/jquery.colorbox-min.js"

I believe that helped. Was not sure where to put the folder in D8. Put in root.
Downloaded the dependency as noted on the module page.

Note the error message in reports was sending to get Colorbox-Master.zip file. Maybe the same but not 100% sure. I felt more comfortable getting from Module page.

Thank you.

You need to put the content of the colorbox-master.zip (folders: content, example1, etc. and files) in folder /web/libraries/colorbox

I found a youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKOYsYcL1Ag that walks you through the colorbox setup. I was getting the same error with colorbox library not loaded. It turns out that when you download the colorbox-master.zip file, you copy it into the libraries\colorbox folder. upack the zip file. At this point you move all of the files from colorbox-master into the colorbox folder. You can then delete the colorbox-master folder and your error goes away. colorbox-master.zip and colorbox_1x.zip contain the same files so you can pick either one for your colorbox library. Hope this helps.
