optionvalue instad of -option=optionvalue

You seem to have space instead of = between --openssldir and the path.
And yeah, try to experiment with the doublequotes if that does not
help. I do not know the exact rules for these in the Windows shell.

Thanks Tomas.
I tried that but got the error I specified in my post. Unless you are saying I
need quotes around the entire –openssldir option.

Hello,
you have to use "--openssldir=C:\OpenSSLInstallDir\CommonFiles\SSL"

Hi All,
I get an error running `perl Configure --openssldir
"C:\OpenSSLInstallDir\CommonFiles\SSL" --prefix=C:\OpenSSLInstallDir VC-WIN64A`
target already defined - C:\OpenSSLInstallDir\Common Files\SSL (offending arg:
VC-WIN64A)
If I remove --openssldir "C:\OpenSSLInstallDir\CommonFiles\SSL",
I believe the oid_file key in the config is used by the ca and req applets
and is meant to be a value rather than a section (i.e. oid_file =
/path/to/oid/file/name)
To do what I believe you are trying to do above, you need to follow the
directions here:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.1.1/man5/c
Additional
analysis was provided by David Benjamin (Google). The fix was developed by
Matt Caswell.
