I can't reproduce this on gpg4win-5.0.0-beta413 @ win11.
For our GnuPG Okular, we should not use the standard file names (okularrc, …) as this would conflict with a regular Okular installation.

yes, it seems to be caused by one of the patches. I'm trying to figure out which one...
Or Window activity (which is related to focus). I'm wondering if one of my Qt patches is to blame.
I can reproduce on windows. It's not that the Button itself needs to be pressed twice, *something* in the dialog needs to be pressed before the button reacts. So this looks like it's something about focus
I think Gpg4win will keep the language switch because for Gpg4win we don't disable any actions via action restrictions (as far as I know).

What do you mean?
The description says: The selection of visible columns and sorting should be possible **additionally** via the main menu.
I just wanted to make sure, "additionally" means additionally to the normal (non a11n accessible) context menu and not some other (a11n accessible) place i haven't found.
I'd prefer the language switch for testing, but I mostly had tests for translation issues in mind, e.g. wrong translation language, tooltip size in some language - which probably should be covered by setting the language via the envvar. I'll do some tests to see, if this would work.
- Column sort order and visibility can be configured only via view and nowhere else. That's how it should be, right?

Yes, very likely it was with NVDA's (update) installer. Therefore I looked at NVDA's source code to find out how to make it work for Kleopatra just to find out that NVDA fakes it itself. I would close this ticket as won't fix.

Ah, I see. I heard the continuous beeps with another pitch once (probably in the installer then) and thought this was possible. Shall I set this to won't fix then?

Separate ticket for the "initial language selection": https://dev.gnupg.org/T7949
The 50 % is when either WKD lookup or keyserver lookup are done and the other is still running. None of those two lookups can be partially done. Hence there's no way to do something with more steps (safe for faking it with a timer). The only alternative is an unspecified progress bar, but unspecified progress bars (aka busy indicators) are completely silent as you can see in the "Loading certificate cache..." busy indicator. (NVDA's code doesn't support unspecified progress except in their own installer which has special code for this, i.e. the installer makes the sound itself.)
This isn't reproducible on Linux. (Tested with a Yubikey but that should really make no difference.) Maybe a regression of our Qt patches.
Please create a separate ticket for "The initial language in kleopatra is not selected according to windows settings". This is a bug in KDE Frameworks that's orthogonal to the issues of this ticket.
Best test this with a newer installer than gpg4win-5.0.0-beta413 to avoid the regression with the raw HTML (see T7886#208675).
The problem with the raw HTML has been fixed already by Tobias.
Yes, sorry, a typo, I corrected it.

Looks good to me on gpg4win-5.0.0-beta413 @ win11.
I also tried to check all tables i can find and it mostly looks good:
- Certificates Lists:
- Main
- Import ("Show imported")
- Cert Selection (e.g. Sign as)
- Keyserver Lookup
- Smartcard
- Groups (both available and in group)
- Certificate Details
- User IDs
- Sub-keys
- Certifications

Actually pinentry has the same behaviour, so this might be a general problem, if one form input field is changed.
It also applies to clicking on other form elements.
As this looks good to me on gpg4win-5.0.0-beta413 @ win11, I move this to done on the gpd5x board.

The tool tip for the menu is missing.
And after the "Save at" dialog we here get a "Secrete Team key was saved to $PATH/$filename" notification window. The one for secret key backup has no location info and for public keys we have no message at all.
We should have consistent behavior when saving secret (and public) keys, imho.
This has been changed:
- A progress/busy indicator page is now shown while smartcards are loaded (unless there are already smartcards shown; in this case the update happens "in the background"). Screen readers speak the progress message.
- The texts on the placeholder page (that is shown if no smartcards were found) are now accessible (if AT is active), i.e. one can reach them with Tab and initially the first text has keyboard focus (so that it's spoken).
- When a smartcard is found then the first smartcard tab has keyboard focus.

This is fixed.
I believe this bug was fixed by T7829. Please confirm with new gpgwin-5.0.0-beta.

The error dialog now has a button to show the audit log (named Diagnostics).

works with Gpg4win-5.0.0-beta395, too
as far as i can tell (and remember), I haven't implemented Ingo's suggestions. I'm putting the ticket back in the backlog and on my TODO list
Nov 14 2025
@werner sees no reason to define a new status error for everything in gpg. So let's stick with this Kleopatra ticket and adding the "Audit Log"/"Diagnostics" button.
Yes, we now plan to add an "Show Audit Log" Button (or is it "Diagnostics" in this case?). But we are not sure if this is enough.
