As far as I know, it will be created (in the default home directory).
The default home directory "gnupg" will be created under the
"application data" directory of the user. Under WinXP (German version)
that will be something like

 c:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\USERNAME\Anwendungsdaten\gnupg

Wherever you like. The default (= home directory) seems to be a likely
choice.

--trustdb-name <filename> for trustdb.gpg
--no-random-seed-file prevents generation of the random_seed file

I don't think that the random_seed file can be relocated, at least I
haven't found any option to do this in the man-page. And while I'm at
it: You could have looked all that stuff up there. *hint*

You'll find the Windows-version of the man-page file "gpg.man" in the
"docs" directory below the gpg installation directory (= NOT the home
directory).
