Sorry, I fail to understand what your problem is. It seems to be a TB/Enigmail
problem. Please ask at their users list.

That is very likely a matter on how the passphrase has been created. It is
known that WinPT at some point changed how it encoded passphrases.

kjathome added a comment to T704: gpg complains about invalid passphrase.

It seems to be a charset problem. I installed WinPT 1.0.0-pre0 and modified the
passphrase replacing international characters with correspondig characters of
the 7 bit character codes: e.g. replacing ä by a. Using these characters only
decryption works with the very same keyrings.
Hence I'd suggest to
a) display the default characterset along with --version option
b) provide an option to display the charcter set being used
c) clarify the scope of the character set (reading stdin, file, passphrase, etc...)

Using Virtual PC I installed a fresh Windows XP Professional version including
SP2 and gpg4win 1.0.6. I can only confirm the behaviour mentioned before:

  • Encryption of clipboard (WinPT) works fine
  • Decryption of clipboard (WinPT) fails
  • Decryption with gpg (1.4.5 gpg4win package) command line (cmd.exe) fails
  • Decryption with gpg (1.4.5 gpg4win package) command line (cmd.exe) with

--passphrase-fd 0 (don't know how to get it working: neither pipe nor typing in
works)

  • Decryption with gpg (1.4.5 gpg4win package) command line (CygWin) fails
  • Decryption with gpg (1.4.5 gpg4win package) command line (CygWin) with

--passphrase-fd 0 option succeeds.

kjathome added a comment to T584: gpg dont't accecpt passphrases with special char's on Windows.

It seems as if I hit the same problem (see T704).
The only way I get decryption working is to run gpg in CygWin environment and
piped the passphrase to gpg.
Example:
PW='secret passphrase'
echo $PW | gpg --passphrase-fd 0 -d <encrypted file> or
cat - | gpg --passphrase-fd 0 -d <encrypted file>

We need more info. In particular how did you set the passphrase in the first
place (Using WinPT or the command line).

kjathome added a comment to T704: gpg complains about invalid passphrase.

I tried to descrypt with different versions of gpg. But all failed. The only one
working is 1.4.2.1 from the cygwin package. Then I reinstalled version 1.4.5
from gpg4win 1.0.6 package. Typing in the passphrase constantly fails, but when
the passphrase is stored in an environment variable and piped into gpg (called
with --passphrase-fd 0) then decryption works fine. My passphrase contains some
special characters of the iso88591 characterset for security reasons. But this
should not make any difference. But I suspect it's a matter of charactersets
when reading the passphrase. I suppose it's not being read from stdin (fd 0)...

kjathome added a comment to T704: gpg complains about invalid passphrase.

I had no other idea how to narrow down the problem. Decryption used to work with
WinPT. Because it no longer worked as of version 1.0 I tried to decrypt directly
calling gpg that came along with gpg4win (which didn't work either). So I tried
to use an older version of gpg in order to proof if the keyrings are ok and working.
I had no copy of gpg version 1.4.4. As far as I remember it worked up to and
including gpg 1.4.4. Cygwin's gpg proved that the keyring's and the passphrase
are working.
Hence I concluded that it must be a problem of gpg 1.4.5
