Not all Windows Embedded OSes are built on top of CE! Look here for a
listing of the products<https://www.microsoft.com/windowsembedded/en-us/downloads.aspx>.
It sounds like you are likely using Windows Embedded Standard 7(aka WES7,
yuck what a mouthful!) which is just a rebranded version of normal old
Windows 7. If this is the case it means anything that can run on windows
7(big windows) will run on WES7 with no modification. The caveat about
Windows Embedded is that you have the flexibility to strip out just about
any componenet of Windows so the most likely issues you will hit are around
what you have removed from the image causing breaks in 3rd party software
such as GnuPG. So in short we need to know the exact version if Windows you
are running to really give accurate advice. CE is a different world which
may require you to recompile the programs you wish to run depending on your
exact scenario.

Cheers,
