Run either mk-ca-bundle.pl (perl) or mk-ca-bundle.vbs (VBScript). Some of the packages of binaries include one or both of them. If your download doesn't include one, download one here:.

The install required installing MS Visual C for 2015 Redistributable. Had to launch that 2x, but I'd bet is was a MS hickup on their end on the download. – Sep 22 '16 at 18:15. Oh yeah, on the captcha thing, I hit the download button before I noticed the check box for 'I am not a robot'.

I think because I tried to download first, even though I later checked the box, I was forced to do the captcha as well. Hopefully others can avoid this.
