You can raise on issue on Github. Or even better raise a PR with your suggested changes. However, as it so happens the Windows instructions have very recently been significantly updated - so some of your suggestions may already have been included: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/12098 > crypto\aes\aesni-mb-x86_64.obj : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type > 'x64' conflicts with target machine type 'x86' This usually occurs when attempting to build 64-bit OpenSSL using the 32-bit VisualStudio tools.
