I don't know why that message wasn't answered, because it's a well-known issue. 
I would have mentioned it in my previous note but it slipped my mind.

You get that error when you try to use the Microsoft assembler (ml.exe or 
ml64.exe). For OpenSSL on Windows, you now must use nasm, which is an 
open-source assembler. You can get it at www.nasm.us<http://www.nasm.us>. Just 
download it, install it (which I think is just unzipping an archive), and put 
it in the path.

Michael,

Thanks for the information and I have been able to make progress using the 
VS2015 x64 command prompts.  Unfortunately, I am running into a new error which 
is captured in a OpenSSL developer thread (see below), but a solution was never 
posted.  Any additional ideas?
