[stunnel-users] Stunnel 5.55 on Win 10 x64 GUI Mode

Sun Jun 16 03:43:14 CEST 2019

Tonight, I downloaded and installed Stunnel version 5.55 and installed 
it on Windows 10 x64 1903.

If I run Stunnel as a service, everything works beautifully.  No issues 
whatsoever.   However, I just
can't seem to get it to run in GUI mode.  When I fire up the GUI, the 
configuration file loads fine
with no errors.  However, when attempting to establish any connection, 
the GUI simply crashes
and the log file just terminates with nothing revealing:

2019.06.15 20:26:02 LOG7[main]: Service [ircs.3] accepted (FD=956) from 
127.0.0.1:52874

2019.06.15 20:26:02 LOG7[0]: FD=1080 ifds=rwx ofds=---

(end of log)

This is, of course, with the service stopped and de-installed.

I've tried several remedies, including running Stunnel in compatibility 
modes, running it as an
administrator, and I even tried to install it completely outside of the 
normal "program files (x86)" location.
Also, the firewall is not the issue.

Nothing seems to help.  I can't figure out what on earth is occurring.

Any insight/ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks and regards,

Thomas
