Hi everyone.
I would like to know what to do with the error "Unable to initialize OpenSSL library". I have installed this library already but the error message keeps popping up.

Shutter comes with everything it needs. You shouldn't need to install anything extra.

1. Which version of Shutter are you using?
2. Are you using the installer or the portable version?
3. Have you downloaded Shutter from the official product page?
4. Your Windows operating system version?

If you are having problems with the installer version, check if you get the same problem with the latest portable version.

Thank you.

I am using Shutter 4.6 downloaded from the official page in Windows Server. I was using the installer version but I tried the portable version and the error still shows.

Which specific version of Windows Server are you using?

We'll need to attempt to replicate the issue locally in order to diagnose it further.

Can you provide more specific version information?

You can get additional information with winver and systeminfo commands.

Shutter 4.6 is running fine on a test instance of Windows Server 2012 R2 x64.

Few things to try:

1. Install the latest Visual C++ runtime.
2. Try several older versions of Shutter. It may give us more clues.
3. Check the system integrity.
4. Can you include a screenshot of the error message?
