try to install OpenSSL 1.1.1d 10 Sep 2019
set INCLUDE=C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\include;%INCLUDE% set LIB=C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\lib;%LIB%

Can't find OpenSSL 1.1.1d's MSI or EXE for install - and modern OpenSSL no longer works with scrypt.
I'd also like to note its starting to get a bit more tedious to install mtkclient on Windows.
Scrypt already had its whole vs tools going on, then fuse got added to the issue and now again scrypt because its using outdated OpenSSL?

I used 1.1.1w from here https://web.archive.org/web/20231102102311/https://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html

I used 1.1.1w from here https://web.archive.org/web/20231102102311/https://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html

I have confirmed that installing OpenSSL version 1.1.1w resolves this issue.
