I just saw that in action: trying to run the command line shown in Process Explorer for an already-running agent gives me:- gpg-agent: a gpg-agent is already running - not starting a new one > You see different agents for different GNUPGHOMEs and > users; this is okay. Ah, that explains why there are so many running. Thank you. Looking at Process Explorer, it gives the command line for each instance of agent. Each one I see there at the moment contains a different path for --homedir. How long is agent supposed to stay running when it is no longer being used? It looks like mine last until I reboot. Or specifically kill them. Or delete the file S.gpg-agent in the relevant GnuPG home directory. - -- Best regards MFPA <mailto:2014-667rhzu3dc-lists-gro...@riseup.net> Look, it's a hat!
