I installed Kleopatra (Ver 2.2.0) from Gpg4win bundle (Ver 2.2.2) on a Windows Vista PC (32Bit). When I try to lunch Kleopatra nothing happens: The progam dosn't lunch, I've no error message and it does not appear in the task manager list process or services. I try to lunch it from the command prompt and had the same resulte, the program dosn't lucnh and no error message appear. I try to un-install & Re-install it, but it didn't change anythings. I try ti install older version Kleopatra (Ver 2.1.1) from Gpg4win bundle (Ver 2.1.1), but I had the same issue. All other soft from the Gpg4win boundl seems to work fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Lunch Kleopatra 2. 3. Actual Results: Nothing happens. No error message. Expected Results: Start Kleopatra Software
Thanks for your report, we had several of "Kleo won't start" reports and the startup was indeed fragile. For Gpg4win-3.0 we have fixed that whole class of loading problems by not using a wrapper anymore and no special dll loading code. We've also removed the dependency to additional startup helpers like dbus and kbuildsycoa so the startup of kleopatra should be now much more stable. You can find a Testversion of the upcoming 3.0 version under: https://wiki.gnupg.org/Gpg4win/Testversions
