If the signing key is specified with default-key in gpg.conf, you are not
required to list it as the signing key on the command line. The same would apply
with default-recipient-self and the recipient on the command line. However,
doing so better documents what your batch file is doing.

Your command isn't giving gpg anything to encrypt

ECHO bingos| GPG --batch -se --passphrase-fd 0 -r PGPTOKEY -u PGPTOKEY
-o "C:\EncryptedFiles\%%F.pgp" "%%F"
