Generated keys with gpg --gen-key Everything works fine. I have setup up the passphrase . When i use it on a file like : gpg -d [login to view URL] it opens the next popup . lqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqk x Please enter the passphrase to unlock the secret key for the OpenPGP certificate: x x "john smith (admin support) <email at [login to view URL]>" x x 2048-bit RSA key, ID 4DDF05FC, x x created 2022-07-02 (main key ID 1274E5D3). x x x x x x Passphrase **********________________________________________ _____________________ x x x x <OK> <Cancel> x mqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqj After i type in the passphrase i want to save the passphrase in a file for further testing.
