I feel i may be among the closest setups to yours out there.

I build using the VS 2010 compiler and had little issues in the past. I need to 
fiddle a bit with the makefiles/setting for the various libraries i have to 
keep updated. The 2010 compiler works fine for curl and libssh2... with some 
modifications. Setting paths changing compiler/linker flags and stuff like 
that. We do not need Nasm or Zlib though, so i cannot comment on that.

We did not yet migrate to openssl 3.3.x and i expect some resistance there. 
This is the sole reason why i am working on moving our code base to a less 
ancient or even current VS version. This will take some time.

I always use an nmake based build or the approach that is closest to that, 
which is not CMake. CMake does not like the way we seperated the compiler from 
the IDE installation. Some environment variables and defines are missing, which 
in turn makes cmake not detect the compiler environment.

For libssh2 i might be among the only one still using the old deprecated nmake 
makefiles, which still can be made to work with little effort. I did not 
understand why they were removed. Though i would not want to maintain them for 
every edge case.

So the tl;dr is: If you know your way around nmake makefiles, VS 2010 can be 
made to work. Do not expect it to work out of the box though. Moderate 
uncertainty remains for openssl 3.3.x.
