Compiled with nim c -d:ssl -d:release test.nim

Please don't fill your issue with useless text, and about the error - if you compile with -d:ssl you need to ship your Windows binary with the OpenSSL DLLs and the root certificate chain that you can find in your Nim's binary folder or in https://nim-lang.org/download/dlls.zip, specifically cacert.pem, libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll, libssl-1_1-x64.dll

you can use @treeform's puppy library if you want to avoid needing the openssl dlls: https://github.com/treeform/puppy

Report this in puppy's repo if you haven't already.

@Yihsiwei can we close this issue? Did my remark about the openssl DLLs help you?

I want to open this exe on a another computer without nim, what can i do?

[NullCode1337]

you need to static link openssl to the executable
however I've been trying to do that for the past YEAR with no luck :(
