Mostly looks good to me on gpg4win-5.0.0-beta336 @ win10/win11.
since @ebo asked about this: the current state is that the first column of all tables can't be moved. This seems to be what we want, so nothing needs to be changed and nothing was done to change this. I guess this ticket can be closed.
Related? In smartcards view:

Shouldn't the enabled close button in win10 / disabled text / nr2 have green color? (it's the "search certs on server" dialog).
This also happens on Linux. And even with the Fusion style.
Created new ticket for decision described above in https://dev.gnupg.org/T7699#202399
Thanks for the Windows 11 screen shots.
We decided to only add a green check mark (or red X in case it fails) on the left side in the message frame.
Thanks for the feedback. The issues are the same as on win10:
After discussion with Ingo and others it seems that separate Kleo processes per GNUPGHOME would confuse more users than being helpful for power users. Considering the use case of gpgpass the conclusion was to add an option to Kleo which allows to start is as a certificate manager without doing the UniqueApplicaiton thing and also entirely quit after closing the window.
Regarding the "unsure" findings:
- invalid state in cert list tooltip (red on black)

- Issues found
But we have the same problems on Unix as described by T7699. (funny, the other bug mentioned above has 76 reversed)
This will never happen on stock Linux.
We decided to keep the color white for these cases and only add some further information, see T7701: Draft: Kleopatra: Add information for verification results
I know of no current Linux issue with this, I thought only the MSI installer is affected
That is not Windows specific. They should end up in %GNUPGHOME%/kleopatra/
What about including the output of

This is more a technical ticket. There's not really something to test. Setting to Resolved/Done as discussed with ebo.
Note that the first screenshot shows still "Sign/Encrypt" as button text instead of "Finish", but I didn't notice that again after this
Most issues with icons in high contrast modes (of Windows 10) should have been fixed. Needs to be verified especially with the high contrast modes of Windows 11.
Setting to Testing.
Moving to QA. All changes should be in the latest beta.
Many issues have been fixed. Setting to Testing to check what I have missed.

We decided in T7579: Kleopatra: improve menu items to remove this action. Users will instead have to mark certificates they want to update and use the Update Certificates action in the "Certificates" menu.

Can be tested with next VSD 3.3.x build.

Thanks! Maybe we should add a tooltip? "Default Appearance" does not have one and I do not find this self explanatory.

I have added the changes/patches to the vsd-3.3-branch of gpg4win
The relevant changes have been merged to the gpg4win branches of kleopatra and libkleo. We can start creating a test build
in 5.0-Beta-190
its not cleared any more in 5.0 Beta-190
If Kleopatra is already running then running
- kleopatra --help shows the help in a window
- kleopatra --help-all shows an error
- kleopatra --version, kleopatra --author, and kleopatra --license open the About window
Meanwhile we added a link to the GnuPG command line documentation at https://gnupg.org/documentation/manuals/gnupg/ below "More documentation" even in Gpg4win.

No, I have no admin rights on that computer: I installed the portable version, too. I saw that the previous version had been uninstalled before installation.
On a different computer I tried to reproduce the situation where GPG4WIN had been installed the standard way. I did not see the effect there. However when upgrading I got a message that the c library could not be written; that was because some Kleopatra windows was still open. After manually closing that, a retry was successful. Other software installers close the application before trying an uninstall or update, however.
Parts of the changes made for T7183: Kleopatra: Reduce certificates offered in Sign/Enyrypt dialog have been reverted. The drop downs for selecting the signing key and the "encrypt to self" key now offer the primary user IDs of usable keys again (instead of all user IDs of usable keys) and there's no button to open a certificate selection dialog anymore.
Just to be clear: You originally installed it as a portable applications and then you also installed a new version in the standard way?
I started Process Monitor only after Kleopatra hang so that I cannot find out which process started gpg-connect-agent.
Can you figure out who started gpg-connect-agent? Note that it is also used by gpgconf to reload, kill, or launch daemons.
And mind that the wording "This certificate is revoked" is wrong in any case, only the user ID is revoked, not the public key.
Log files for above deadlock
I just had another hang.

I updated the version database. We now have entries for "gpg4win", "gpd", and "vsd"
