An updated GUI installer for ntp-4.2.8p9 for Windows is now
available at
https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/sw/ntp.htm#ntp_stable

This NTP version contains some security fixes, see:
http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Main/SecurityNotice#Recent_Vulnerabilities
for details. It is explicitly recommended to upgrade earlier
installations to this version.

Does this release also include loopback-ppsapi-provider.dll?

The dates on the installed DLL match your initial 4.2.8
release date, so it is not clear whether it has just not
changed since then, or not been provided since then:

whereas libeay32.dll shows:

This DLL seems to be the only way to get PPS working
properly with recent (PCI) serial cards and drivers on
recent Windows releases.

Presumably for security reasons, the full path(s) must be
specified in the PPSAPI_DLLS *SYSTEM* environment variable,
on recent Windows releases.
