I don't do windows. Can you send suggested patches to the sqlite3WinRandomSeed() function in os_win.c that access the crypto framework on versions of windows that support such a thing? The patches will need to fall back to using some other universal seeding mechanism on systems that lack the crypto framework. -- D.
