Hi, I am running as Administrator and tried moving the dlls to the windows\system32 directory because I remembered this as being an issue for me in the past.
Ran command from the DOS command line. Will try it again later without quotes - as has been indicated quotes are not required in my case. Quotes or no quotes aside the command I have issue to openssl finds the cnf file but then seems to have an issue using it.
