Re: Curl and libcurl

You need to download the source code for the latest release of curl and
libcurl. There is documentation in curl web-portal on how to compile.
Compile and generate the required target binary like Debug|X64 Release|x86
etc...

In your VC++ projects refer to the header and libs that you downloaded and
compiled.

Windows 11 has curl.exe available, not libcurl, but you don't need to use
this binary in your development.

Let me know in case you need further assistance in setting up.
Thanks
