<div>Hi Robert.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'm not sure if we're closer or not. I plugged in the –no-default-keyring and –keyring “name”</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Command line I'm pushing to GnuPG: C:\Program Files\GnuPG\bin\gpg.exe --verbose --batch --trust-model always --pinentry-mode loopback --no-default-keyring --keyring "C:\Users\RickRustad\AppData\Roaming\gnupg\pubring.kbx" --recipient " XXXXXXX " --encrypt</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Error message echo'd back to my trace log:</div>
<div> gpg: enabled debug flags: memstat trust extprog</div>
<div>gpg: XXXXXXX: skipped: No public key</div>
<div>gpg: [stdin]: encryption failed: No public key</div>

<div>Hi Robert.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Found the file and I'll plug in your suggestion and run a test.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Can I move that KBX file to the C:\Program Files\GnuPG folder for a more central location?</div>

<div> </div>
<div>Yep. Use both "--no-default-keyring" and "--keyring". For instance:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>$ gpg --no-default-keyring --keyring \path\to\pubring.kbx --list-keys</div>
<div> </div>
<div>However, as of GnuPG 2.2 you can no longer specify private keys this way. There used to be an option, "--secret-keyring", which was used just like "--keyring", but it's obsolete and now does nothing.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>> In one of my tests I replaced "--recipient" with "--default-recipient"</div>
<div>> but it had no affect, same error message.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Yeah, that's expected and doesn't shed much light on the matter.</div>
