I have seen this already. but where can I find winencrpyt.dll after including winencrpyt.h? – Noor Nawaz Jan 13 '14 at 08:11
You need to use `wincrypt.h` header and `crypt32.lib` library – vershov Jan 13 '14 at 08:59
When I include wincrypt.h, should I add crypt32.lib explicitly? because I'm getting link error. and how to add crypt32.lib in Qt project? – Noor Nawaz Jan 15 '14 at 08:42
@NoorNawaz yes, you should all it explicitly. Check how to add external libraries at Qt projects [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/718447/adding-external-library-into-qt-creator-project). – vershov Jan 15 '14 at 09:05
