 From that page:

    *Note*  WinINet does not support server implementations. In
    addition, it should not be used from a service. For server
    implementations or services use Microsoft Windows HTTP Services
    (WinHTTP)
    <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/WinHttp/winhttp-start-page>.

If that means Windows Server implementations do not support this API, 
then another one should probably be used. But surely there is one that 
works on all types of Windows OS?
