-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
You'll likely want to redirect the decrypted output to a file. I'm no expert on the DOS/Windows command-line, so I don't know if this would work there. On Linux/Unix, I'd do this: gpg -d <asc filename> > <output_filename> Note the ">" redirection operator. Regards, Erik BosseB wrote: > I have a number of encrypted files, which I need to decrypt.
