Notes

  • Other download mirrors for the OpenSSL binaries are listed here.
  1. Works with MSVC++, Builder 3/4/5, and MinGW. Comes in form of self-install executables. Here.
    • The latest binaries were built with Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition. OSes prior to Windows XP are no longer supported.
    • Select Win32 OpenSSL v* Light in the download section. (If you use 64-bit Miranda, download 64-bit OpenSSL installer.)
    • Run the installer, select to install OpenSSL DLLs to Windows system directory (see the screenshot).
  2. Pre-compiled Win32/64 libraries without external dependencies to the Microsoft Visual Studio Runtime DLLs, except for the system provided msvcrt.dll. Here.
  • If you want to keep Miranda NG portable, you have to copy libeay.dll and ssleay.dll to Libs directory.
