Ture... Indeed... Then again, there are some helper apps that use GPG
which expect to see these Registry entries, even if the GPG directory is
located in the root of C:\ -- WinPT Tray/WinPT OE come to mind...
Personally, I've always used C:\GnuPG and, to make things ultra-simple,
placed a copy of gpg.exe in %windir%
To each his own, right?!?
