Without --expert my proposal for full-gen-key would be:

Maybe it is the same issue described in https://dev.gnupg.org/T4717 ?

This is generally the better tracker to report Gpg4win / Kleopatra issues. The git systems are linked in a way that I can both automatically add a commit here and in the KDE tracker.
I just noticed the KDE report a bit quicker because there is less traffic, but I would have seen it here within the day.

I give this normal priority even if it is a whish because I have the same whish and already have some code around that would make it more comfortable, especially if it is used directly in GpgOL.

Strange. Can you please go to the command line (cmd.exe) and run gpg --verify "c:\<path to>\gpg4win-3.1.10.exe.sig" "c:\<path to>\gpg4win-3.1.10.exe.sig"

This pretty much matches my test setup. As the crash is in GPGME it is out of Kleopatra's hand. So I'll try to write a test that repeats such a signing for lots of times. I think this is probably some random race condition.

I don't think I can reproduce it, at least it didn't happen anymore after restarting and continuing the imports. AFAIR it happened after importing the "Master Key", during trying to import the "Release Key" from https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/keys.html
Ah and maybe one more hint: I have several keypairs, so the dialog for choosing the keypair to be used appears in the next step.

Kleopatra was already using this keyserver at the time i took the screenshots, which is why i opened the ticket since it was working in the command line.

Hello,

I have no idea – I’m not familiar with cmd.exe – Do you have step by step instructions on how to do this?

Many thanks,

Hi,

can you please open the console (cmd.exe) and do a "gpg -K" and "gpgsm -K"

do these commands list all your secret keys or do they hang?

Also please try killing the process "gpg-agent.exe" through the Task manager and try to open Kleopatra again.

Regards,
Andre

Welcome back from vacation!
@aheinecke Yes I am 1000% sure the passphrase is "dave" without the quotes.
These are the commands I use for the encrypt using the IBM Encryption Facility:

-o '/home/suimgwy/_july1.pbe' \
-s2k-cipher-name AES_256 -s2k-digest-name SHA256 -s2k-mode 3 \
-s2k-passphrase dave \
-t ISO-8859-1 \
-use-mdc \
-c '/home/suimgwy/_input.txt'
<<<

back from vacation so apologies for the delay. @werner This is reproducible on the command line without Kleopatra. So maybe something for you our Gniibe to look into?

Keyserver issues are always hard to analyze because the state of the servers and which server you get is always a factor.

Werner: I'm assigning this to you. Because the underlying reason is a missing status from gpg. I think we should add that for 2.3 as any new status line tends to break things.

can you please open the console (cmd.exe) and do a "gpg -K" and "gpgsm -K"

Hello,
when can we fix it?

Log loops with:

I have a hang now when keylisting in Kleo with GPGME_DEBUG=9:
