Hello,

I am using gpg4win V. 2.3.2 on a WIN7 machine, but I want to test the gnuPG 
2.1.13 on the same machine, using the CLI, without interfering with the 
existing gpg4win installation.

I downloaded and expanded the gnuPG 2.1.13 Windows CLI archive into a new 
directory, and made sure to fully exit gpg4win. 

Running      C:\gnupg2.1.13\gpg --expert --full-gen-key

I got the following message:

"gpg: starting migration from earlier GnuPG versions" and an attempt to connect 
by an agent using IPC to a socket on the local machine - which I blocked by my 
firewall to avoid messing up my existing gpg4win installation.

I suspect that gnuPG is looking at the same <user>\AppData\Roaming\gnupg 
directory that is being used by gpg4win. If that is the case, is there a way to 
force gnuPG to use a different directory? I could not find any config file that 
would let me do that.

Thanks for any help,

Rimma
