installation problem

Post by joiwind » Wed Jun 08, 2022 7:19 pm

I have just downloaded the latest version to setup on an old XP SP3 box and I'm getting a missing DLL message when running the exe to setup :

"The Entry Point Procedure InterlockedCompareExchange64 cannot be found ..."

Any ideas please ?

The command completed successfully.

Perhaps your old PC box is too old?

Thanks for the reply. I downloaded an older version which works and will go up through the versions to find the latest without this problem.

This is an OpenSSL issue that only affects Build 9772. A patch has already been submitted, and the next SoftEther VPN release is likely going to work again on Windows XP 32-bit: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/18855
