Features

Gpg4win 5.0.0 will have all features from the recently released version 4.4.0. In addition these new features are available:

  • Post quantum resistant encryption using FIPS-203 (Kyber) in a composite scheme with classic ECC as second public key algorithm.
  • All binaries are now build for Windows 64 bit and it will thus be possible to install it on Windows machines without support for the 32 Bit emulation.
  • The GUI parts are now using Qt version 6 and thus can make use of the latest software improvements in KDE.
  • The build system has been modernized.
  • GnuPG 2.5 is used.

Known bugs

  • The GnuPG binaries and the installer itself are still provided as 32 bit binaries.
  • Deinstalling may leave some files around.
