I believe GPG4USB just takes a portable version of GPG, tweaks where it looks for stuff, and keeps the files on the USB device. Normally your keyring and other files are in $HOME/.gnupg. According to their FAQ it's stored in $USBDEVICE/keydb https://www.gpg4usb.org/faq.html GPG can be told to look to a different default directory for these files vial the --homedir option, or GNUPGHOME environment variable or on Win32 the registry. If you have Thunderbird+Enigmail+GnuPG2 installed on both systems using something like that would let them use the keyring you shuffle around on the USB device. You can also copy your key files from the USB device to the expected location on the systems but then you'd have to work out a method of keeping them in sync. > Is this possible?

I don't have any experience doing any of this, sorry.
