Post by: charliegreen on August 05, 2011, 03:45 am
hey everybody,new to sr and forums of any kind,(i guess this free market concept really motivated me)so if i don't have the best online ettiquette please excuse me,my problem is trying to open kleopatra on my windows 7, im new to pgp too, but i've managed to open my gpg4win everything else seems to work fine,but when i try to use "sign and encrypt" or anything similiar im told my ipc connect call failed , anybody know what this means? i looked around on the forums, before posting this question, and the only thing i saw was  a conflicting program(wordwrap in Notepad)that would crash kleo, any help is greatly appreciated, thanks oh i checked my notepad program , no wordwrap

when you click on Gpg4win in your menu you should see"GPA" right above kleopatra, open the GPA.
you will not need kleopatra to use your encryption program. when you installed gpg4win you should have checked the GPA box.
if you did not check that box, uninstall the program and then reinstall. the only box to leave unchecked, is the email client.
so, using GPA(privacy assistant) will allow you to create your key(s), encrypt and decrypt using the assistant.
i hope this helps, it's been a long week and it's late.

peace..
