Aside: You mean from your build dir(s) to system32? Does Seven like that? 
I thought it was supposed to be stricter about \progfiles and \windows .
Or are you doing everything as Adminstrator, the old-Windows no-security
way?

The filename you specified for configfile didn't work.

Notice that as logged it has bogus characters at beginning 
and end, where your command shows quote characters.

Did you manually type that (openssl req) command? 
If so, exactly what did you type for the quotes?
Was this in a CommandPrompt=CMD aka "DOS" window, 
or something like mingw bash? (It doesn't look like it.)

Or did you cut&paste from a Microsoft document (e.g. Word) 
or maybe a Microsoft-served webpage (e.g. IIS)? 
Those like to use "smart quotes" which are different 
for left and right and supposedly nicer looking, 
but are NOT the (plain-ASCII) quote character 
accepted by Windows CMD much less Unix shells.

Note you don't actually need any quotes there at all if CMD.
You may need to quote the backslashes in mingw/cygwin/etc; 
if so it's easier to use (forward)slashes instead. 
That works for most actual programs (not CMD builtins like DIR).
