Research direction
Start by reproducing the connection behavior on Windows 10 with OpenSearchODBC 1.2.0, comparing the Use SSL flag with and without an https:// prefix in the Host field. Trace how these connection settings are parsed and passed to the SSL connection, then verify that enabling Use SSL works without requiring the prefix.
