Not of OpenSSL, no.

Note that this is for development *of* *OpenSSL*. Just like the OpenSSL
users list is for users *of* *OpenSSL*.

Ah, so your issue is with getting Total Commander's OpenSSL support to work.
You need to install OpenSSL exactly how Total Commander wants it and not any
other way.

OpenSSL is *NOT* intended to be 'used' by people who use programs that use
it. It is intended to be used by programs and by people who make them.

How would that help you if it wasn't the version Total Commander was built
to use?

If you want to know whether Total Commander works with a 64-bit SSL library
and how to get/make one for it, you should be asking the Total Commander
folks. (Unless you already did and got the answer that it would, in which
case what are you asking exactly?)
