hmm, confirmed v30i and v31 also works. and it seems to be broken in v31a and later. since there is no release note and/or changelog for v31a, nothing is known besides ntdll and kernel32 are newer in v31a.

@VistaLover I will reply here instead of going offtopic on GitHub in this thread. You asked: I used adang1345's CPython 3.14.2 and these dll's. But the dll's from your other link also failed. I also have the 2015-2022 redistributable. The issue is in the name of these files. E.g. libssl-3-x64.dll instead of libssl-3.dll, as CPython x64 expects. And, as you have seen, there are no issues at all building the 32bit counterpart using adang's Python with the dll's from your sources. I have absolutely no idea how to build a Windows 7 compatible Python 64bit and link it against OpenSSL-3.6.0. 😕 Maybe I should ask adang to include a more recent OpenSSL. Preferably the 3.5.4 LTS release. I did manage to build them on Linux though (with a lot of help from AI 😐). And then force yt-dlp to use it via an alias: alias yt-dlp='python3.14 /usr/local/bin/yt-dlp' (in the file `.bash_aliases`). Result: [debug] Python 3.14.2 (CPython x86_64 64bit) - Linux-5.15.0-164-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.35 (OpenSSL 3.6.0 1 Oct 2025, glibc 2.35) (my system itself has the old Python 3.10.12 and OpenSSL 3.0.2) The challenge was, to install the updated ones in a way that they would not interfere with the system installed ones. It would cause major breakage.

WinNTSetup 5.4.2 - fixed could not start minimized - fixed some wimcapture issues - fixed possible buffer overflow in some minwin functions - fixed crash on malformed Win10Builds.ini - updated ux and drvinst patcher for Win11 build > 28000

Many programmes come with their own OpenSSL modules to establish secure connections. If such a programme is no longer updated, it is only a matter of time before secure connections can no longer be established. Local updating of the OpenSSL files by the user, if possible at all, can then help. A global installation of a current OpenSSL version will not help at all in such cases, as it is simply not used.
