I installed the latest version of Zenmap 7.93 that calls Nmap on Windows 11.I also installed the latest version of OpenSSL 1.1.1.q.However, when I launch Zenmap and conducted an Intense Scan:
nmap -T4 -A -v 192.168.1.12The following Message was displayed at the top of Zenmap:
Starting Nmap 7.93 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2022-09-10 07:29 Eastern Daylight TimeNSOCK ERROR [0.4770s] ssl_init_helper(): OpenSSL legacy provider failed to load.I searched Google for this error as well as this platform and could not find any solution to fix this error.

This seems to be a bug in nmap 7.93. Try installing version 7.92 and see.
The solution now is to uninstall nmap version 7.93 and reinstall 7.92.
Please go through this Issue over Github https://github.com/nmap/nmap/issues/2532.
This has been fixed in commit https://github.com/nmap/nmap/commit/9d0e5ac2b915c5e90568200a58fb98c44aec961d however a new release is yet to be tagged.
[Zen]Nmap version 7.94 is out and the fix for this issue has been included.
