passwort is (implicitly) defined in the keyring. The secret key is stored 
encrypted. You need the passphrase in order to use the key. You must know the 
passphrase, you cannot get it from the GnuPG installation.

I am not familiar with that DOS / Windows stuff. Just a few comments:

1) You do not need a passphrase when you encrypt files. You need the 
passphrase for signing and decrypting.

2) ECHO Password|
gpg --passphrase-fd 0 --batch -o "..." --decrypt %%F
should do.
