How to setup openssl on windows

Question

I have setup openssl according to this guide

when I tried to complie my openssl-based code, it is showing fatal error: openssl/ssl.h: No such file or directory

The screenshort from msys2 mingw 64-bit is shown below.

Please how can I fix this? When I run openssl in the terminal, it works correctly but the code to use it (like stated above) isn't working.

Answer 1

I realized that using msys2 msys console fixed this.

Answer 2

I suggest you can try vcpkg. It is a library package management tool. Very easy to install library like openssl on windows.
