Description

Hi, I found a very serious bug in Keopatra that prevents me from using the program.
1 Create a new copy of keys from the menu File => New key pair,
2 Enter name and email
3 Enter password

  1. At the end of the process the attached error appears. It did not generate any key pairs.

Thank you

Denis

Please post the output of "gpgconf -X" and "gpgconf -V".

A common reason for this error is that you run the gpg-agent on a remote machine (e.g. over an ssh connection). There are of course other reasons but you did not gave enough information on your environment and the installed version. A screenshot of the About->Kleopatra dialog might be helpful as well (but please don't use dark mode for screenshots).

  1. I use Windows 10 Pro (19045.3996 22H2).
  2. I don't use gpg-agent on a remote machine (e.g. over an ssh connection) I'm not capable!
  3. I don't understand how to get "gpgconf -X" and "gpgconf -V". Can you explain the procedure better to me?

Thank you

Hi, you have "compliance de-vs" in your %APPDATA%\gnupg\gpg.conf. But have installed Gpg4win. The default key pair algorithm of Gpg4win is not VS-NfD compliant, in fact the whole Gpg4win version was not approved for VS-NfD. So just remove that compliance line from your config and everything should be fine. Otherwise the forbidden indicates that you are trying to generate a non-compliant key with a version configured for compliant operation.
