OpenSSL
On Windows Qt Creator and its plug-ins require OpenSSL libraries to work with secure connections (HTTPS).
If you have installed Qt Creator with installer provided by the Qt Company, it should already have those libraries. Exception is 4.9.x version of Qt Creator (see QTCREATORBUG-22853).
If you have built Qt Creator yourself or have installed 4.9.x version, please install OpenSSL (light installer is sufficient). You can choose to copy OpenSSl DLLs to the Windows system directory or to add them to the PATH environment variable or to copy them to Qt Creator bin/ directory. You need libssl-1_1.dll and libcrypto-1_1.dll. Or you can install OpenSSL with Qt online installer (see how).
Without OpenSSL libraries only insecure (HTTP) connections are available. In this case you have to change URL in plug-in settings to http://cheat.sh. Automatic check for plug-in updates is unavailable without OpenSSL libraries.
