What am I doing wrong?

Hello all.

I'm having issues with encrypt and decrypt and I know it's something I'm doing wrong. I created a key with Kelopatra. Imported it into GNU Privacy Assistant. It shows up as Fully Valid.

Next, to test, I created the text file test.txt and used the following command to encrypt it.
gpg -e -u myuser at domain.net -r myuser at domain.net test.txt

The file test.txt.gpg showed up in my folder.

Next, I tried to decrypt it using the following syntax.
gpg -d test.txt.gpg

And I get the following error.
Gpg decryption failed: No secret key

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. This used to not be an issue.

This is Windows Server 2012.

Thanks in advance
