Re: [Enigmail] Best way to move to TB 78

2020-10-24 Thread Mark
I have TB 78 on one machine that I installed fresh (no TB nor GPG) on there originally and it seems to be working fine. On my main one it is still at 68 but now shows an upgrade to 78. From what I have heard there will no longer be any updates for 68 I will be upgrading it to 78 as well. On

This question was originally from me. What I ended up doing is installing GPG4Win on that other PC and used a program from Robert Hansen that backs up and restores all the relevant GPG files. I then restored those keys  into GPG4Win and installed Thunderbird 78 which did import the keys into its

Interestingso basically only imported your own key?  See that is why I want to install it on a separate machine first before updating my daily use one. It would be a totally fresh install on that other machine as it doesn't have Thunderbird nor any PGP programs/keys. On 9/25/2020 7:54 PM,

The move of my originating key pair from TB68 to TB78 on a Win 10 laptop went very smoothly. OpenPGP Key Manager permits me to see that key but not the public keys from other people, as was done by Kleopatra. The "Show keys from other people" box in the OpenPGP Key Manager was checked. Did I

Thanks from my read of it I gather (as I'm starting with a blank slate on that other machine) I would need to first install GPG4Win on it and then copy my key files to that PC. I would then install TB78 and also the "migration edition" of Enigmail to import the keys into TB78's OpenPGP
