Thanks for the response, the command

gpg --recepient testuserID --encrypt abc.txt

I used has double dashes still I gives the same error.

I think I am using the default keyring as I didn't change its location

try using the "--homedir <path_to_your_keyring>" option

Thanks,
Nag

Hi,



I am new to gpg command line utility for file encryption/decryption. I
have installed gpg4win v 2.0.2&  trying to encrypt a file with a key
that I imported which is also listing while typing list-keys command



The issue is that I am getting encryption failed no public key while
typing in the below command

gpg -recipient testUserID -encrypt abc.txt



In one of the posts I found that this is due to not specifying keyring
location with using -keyring option



But while I used below command with specifying keyring as below



gpg -recipient testIUserID -keyring C:/Documents&
Settings/username/Application Data/gnupg/pubring.gpg -encrypt abc.txt



I am getting below error



gpg: keyblock resource 'C:/Documents&  Settings/username/Application
Data/gnupg/C:/Documents' no such file or directory

usage: gpg [options] [filename]



The first command isn't working because you need to double-dash the
options.  "--recipient" and "--encrypt".

You really shouldn't need the -keyring option if you're using your
default keyring.  But for the option to work, you would need quotes
around the filename since it has spaces in it.
