Hello!
I did a complete uninstall of GPG4Win with exception of the personal data in my homedir, restarted my machine and installed GPG4Win with all options selected (usually I install it without GPG-OL). Once again mkportable.exe and paperkey.exe were missing though the rest of my GPG4win-Installation was working as expected.
I was able to locate the missing files in the 3.1.16 installer and extracted them manually using 7-Zip. Thus I was able to create a portable installation.
I found no reason why mkportable and paperkey were not  installed, there were no entries in my virus scanners log (Windows Defender) or any other signs for abnormal behaviour of my system.
Greetings
Karel
