Ah you're correct, it is gpg.exe, there is no gpg2.exe
The GUI is easier, but has it's own complexities. There are two different 
applications, GPA and Kleopatra, and if I recall correctly you also need to 
sign the Qubes key yourself otherwise you will get an error, so it also 
involves creating your own keypair.

@Maria
Try this. Open GPA, import your downloaded master key. Check if the 
fingerprint is correct. Right click set owner trust and set it to ultimate. 
Then download the release signing key and also import it. Download the 
Qubes iso and signature. Right click the signature and go to More GpgEx 
options, and click Verify. If the verify gives you an error, try command 
line:
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\gnupg\bin
Then use gpg to verify(change path to correct download folder, you can 
right-click the signature file, click properties, and copy and paste the 
file path):
gpg.exe --verify C:\Users\*your 
username*\Downloads\Qubes-R4.0.3-x86_64.iso.asc
