I was able to recreate this on GPG4WIN Win7/64, incidentally. The problem does not appear to be in GPA, but in pinentry. It can be recreated with a stock GPG4WIN installation. Steps: 1. Open a command window and launch a gpg --edit-key session 2. Execute a command that requires passphrase entry 3. *Do not* shift focus from the command window 4. Type your passphrase. Nothing is visible. 5. Shift focus to pinentry 6. Type your passphrase and complete the passphrase 7. When focus returns to the command window, you'll see your passphrase has been entered This seems to be caused by pinentry not grabbing keyboard focus. It's a serious bug, all right. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
