that's only a warning. You can ignore it (better would be to solve the
warning).

You need to link Crypt32.lib.

If I remember correctly, there was a change which now links statically
against Crypt32.lib instead of dynamically, because it was decided to
not support OS versions prior to Win2k anymore - and Crypt32.lib is only
available for >= Win2k, so it can now be linked statically.
