Help with error please
Just installed GPA/Kleopatra. Whenever I start up GPA I get 3 windows pop-up: 1. "GnuPG is rebuilding the trust database. This might take a few seconds." 2. "The GPGME library returned an unexpected error at keytable.c:150. The error was: Provided object is too short This is either an installation problem or a bug in GPA. GPA will now try to recover from this error." 3. A dialog box saying I don't have a private key yet and giving me option to generate one now. I've re-installed and tried creating keys but nothing seems to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated! ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

Actually you could copy the entire GNUPGHOME to the respective Windows directory. The name of the lock files and some temporary files are different but that does matter. "gpg --version" (or "gpgconf --list-dirs") shows you the standard home directory on Windows. If you only want to copy some keys, you can use the same procedure you would use between Unix boxes. Kleopatra's card manager is pretty basics. If you don't like it you can use the one in gpa (which can optionally be installed), or just resort to the command line.

In my example the primary key is rsa3072 and encryption subkey is rsa4096. You can see this info before creation date if the key.

Using the OpenPGP Card on Unix && Win7
Hello, I'm using the OpenPGP Card on Unix (FreeBSD) and on my Ubuntu mobile phone (see https://gnupg.org/blog/20171005-gnupg-ccid-card-daemon-UbuntuPhone.html) mostly for storing credentials with the password manager 'pass' and using them from the browser, and as well for signing mails. At work I have to use a Win7 desktop and OutLook for the company mails and FreeBSD with GnuPG must run in a Vbox, which works fine with the OpenPGP Card too. I'd like to use the same Card with OutLook (please don't blame me :-)) and have already installed gpg4win-3.0.0.exe which seems to work together with OutLook. Before digging into all the details by my own and esp. because in Windows I'm only a DAU(*), is there some step by step guide to configure the OpenPGP Card in Windows and using the files from the GNUPGHOME on FreeBSD in Windows?
