What I'm using:
gpg --output e:\temp\test.txt.pgp --encrypt --recipient recipient at org e:\temp\test.txt --batch --yes
I'm using this on Windows 2016. I'm not sure what I'm missing...any ideas?

This is one of gpg’s little UI idiosyncrasies. '—batch', '—yes' etc. must come before actions such as '—encrypt' on the command line.
