Nginx 1.10.3 for Windows

By Kevin Worthington Published: 1 February 2017

Nginx 1.10.3 for Windows (32-bit and 64-bit builds) are now available for free download. As always, packages are built from the upstream stable branch. Nginx (pronounced “engine x”) is a high performance web server, caching proxy and a Layer 7 load balancing solution. Millions of web sites on the Internet use and benefit from Nginx because of its extreme performance, scalability, reliability, flexibility, and security.

Note: these builds are built with older versions of OpenSSL and therefore SSL/TLS is NOT recommended for use. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. Using http only is recommended.

On 2017-01-31, the stable version of Nginx 1.10.3 was released at nginx.org. The upstream changelog is as follows:
