Version
Gpg4win-3.1.16 5.77.0, Gpg4win

Event Timeline

The keyserver network has been shutdown a couple of months ago. We can't do anything about it. The default in newer gpg versions has changed; you may put

keyserver  hkps://keyserver.ubunto.com

into your gpg.conf or better keyserver.conf. If you use the latter make sure no keyserver has been set into gpg.conf

werner edited projects, added Keyserver, FAQ, Support; removed Bug Report.

Ah well, Kleopatra has a GUI to set the keyserver - that is probably easier to use.
