I tried searching this list and found a few others having problems with key generation, but I haven't figured out the solution for me. I've tried downloading GnuPG for windows by itself (gnupg-w32cli-1.4.7.exe) as well as part of the latest gpg4win package. Trying to generate a new key by using GPA gives the following feedback:
The GPGME library returned an unexpected error. The error was: General error This is probably a bug in GPA. GPA will now try to recover from this error. When I run at a Command Prompt gpg --gen-key, I get (after a bunch of +^.> characters and two messages saying to type to generate random bytes): gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=2d) I only want to install GnuPG, generate a private key, import a few public keys, and use gpgee to encrypt and decrypt a few files - I don't need Outlook integration or anything fancy. I was a bit surprised to be shut down so fast. I have administrator rights (or I couldn't have installed). Anything I could be missing?
