Hello 

I am a novice with GNU Gpg4Win. After installation and keys creating nothing works, even not with Adele.
- GPA + Kleopatra do not accept the keys.
- The keys file has not the correct format type ('asc' instead of 'pgp').
- Reducing the keys file to 1 key (privat - public) results in eliminating the complete folder from beeing displayed.
- GPA crashes when I try to create a new key (after reinstalling the application).
- Copying the key by copy-paste results in an empty line after each CrLf (it has taken me 11 (!) attempts to send the public key until Adele could read it).
- Reinstallation does not help.
- The user manual does not fit nor tell how to solve the problems ... 

Could you please help me out of this desaster?

Best regards - Koni

This is not really a bug description for kleopatra maybe except "- GPA + Kleopatra do not accept the keys." which is much to inconcrete for developers to resolve and sounds like you are trying to do something wrong.

As you seem to be looking for general help with gpg4win a mail to the gpg4win users mailing list (see: http://gpg4win.de/community.html ) would have been more appropiate and probably even resulted in a more timely reply.
