This has been the case for 25 years.

I know! That's why do not understand, why this new openssl.exe is behaving differently?

No idea how that screen shot error is relevant to ICS, we don't use openssl.exe. 

 

Our openssl zips have a different versions of openssl.exe in the Win32 and Win64 zips, you have mixed therm up.

Thank you very much for the quick replay!

I've double checked, and triple checked, and realized, you where right!

 

About the problem, why I was mislead:

On this site: https://wiki.overbyte.eu/wiki/index.php/ICS_Download

There is only one ZIP available of 9.1 download for Delphi7.

Inside that ZIP there is only one ICS-OpenSSL folder. (Containing both 32bit and 64bit DLLs.)

Inside that folder there is only one openssl.exe file. (No separate 32/64bit versions of it.)

 

I've also checked, who made the digital signature for DLLs and the EXE:

 - They are signed by the same company (Magenta Systems Ltd) nearly the same time. (21 sec. difference)

 

I've also checked the other ZIP made for new Delhpi versions: https://wiki.overbyte.eu/arch/icsv91-new.zip

But there is exactly the same structure.

 

So basically NOTHING IS INDICATING, that this exe is only for 64 bit !

 

 

But if I scroll down to the bottom of the page and download the binary file separately :

https://wiki.overbyte.eu/arch/openssl-3.2.1-win32.zip

 

That openssl.exe has a smaller size! (814k)

A Solution would be in the next release: (9.2 ?)

 - Please rename that openssl.exe to: openssl-64.exe

 - and include the 32bit exe in the component-pack-ZIP too please ! 

 - Even better, if both EXE files would be also auto-embedded, just like the DLLs. They are small compared to the whole directory combined.

 

Thank You all for the help!

Still got no idea why are distributing openssl.exe and why this is a problem.  The directory your screen shows has the correct DLLs for the EXE. 

 

We don't need two separate openssl.exe files since we don't use them.

 

The only problem here is you decided to change the way OpenSSL is distributed for your own reasons.
