On Cygwin '/etc/resolv.conf' is not  needed, as ilustrated by the
below log dirmngr requires 'resolv.conf':

Cygwin is Unix emulation on Windows and thus GnuPG considers the
platform to be unix.  In turn /etc/resolv.conf is required.


Fair enough.

Could dirmngr use the DNS provided by windows or is there a way to
bypass the use of 'resolv.conf'?

Use the standard Windows GnuPG and you get Windows features.  Or, well,
use the Tor support which redirects all DNS over Tor.  Just install the
Tor Browser and GnuPG will use that.


Can you elaborate on how I would let "Cygwin dirmngr" use "Tor Browser for Windows"?
