Instead create a folder on the root of your drive, f.e. "c:\projects"

anyway you choosed the wrong target, and I'm not sure (= have not yet
checked) if there is already a winssl target with these project files -
but you need winssl in order to use the Windows cert store, and not
OpenSSL (and that would then anyway kill the dependency of OpenSSL).

oh, and another point: please avoid top posting! See the footer of each
mail (Etiquette link) for further info ...
