Do you mean GPG4Win 1.1.3?
GnuPG 1.1.3 (if it existed) would date back to circa 2000.

You _DE_crypt with a secret key. You encrypt to a public key.
Without the specific error message, we're reduced to mind-reading and guessing.
However, I'll take a guess and say you need to import the secret key as well as
the public.
As there is only one key involved, the quick and dirty (BUT non-canonical and
guaranteed to change in a future version) way is to copy the files from a
working profile to the new user.
The keyring files, pubring.gpg, secring.gpg, trustdb.gpg, are stored by
default in %APPDATA%\GnuPG. This usually translates as
- Window XP and earlier (XP/2000/NT) -
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\GnuPG
- Windows Vista and Windows 7:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\gnupg
Any custom settings for GnuPG are stored in gpg.conf. It and any other
GnuPG config files are /normally/ located in the same directory as the
keyring files.
