Hi,
I would like to use GPG to verify installation files (True Crypt this time to be specific) that come with a signature .sig and PGP public key .asc.
I have installed GPG 4 Win 3.1.13.
I have imported the public key. I have tried to verify the .exe with .sig, but Kleopatra tells me the public key is not certified, so I try to certify it myself, but I need my own key pair for that. So I try to build it, only it ends with error, because "No agent running".
Now I assume that these issues happen because I prevent Kleopatra or GPG from accessing the net, but then again, why should it do so for the tasks specified above? I have used PGP in the past, long time ago, and it was always offline.
So my question is - can I still use GPG to check the signature of the file, pls?
And perhaps, why does GPG so desire the net access for my tasks?
 
Many thanks in advance for your kind help!
 
Best regards,
PH
