Hi,
I would like to use GPG to verify installation files (True Crypt this time to be
specific) that come with a signature .sig and PGP public key .asc.

You should use veracrypt instead.

I have installed GPG 4 Win 3.1.13.
I have imported the public key. I have tried to verify the .exe with .sig, but
Kleopatra tells me the public key is not certified, so I try to certify it
myself, but I need my own key pair for that. So I try to build it, only it ends
with error, because "No agent running".
Now I assume that these issues happen because I prevent Kleopatra or GPG from
accessing the net, but then again, why should it do so for the tasks specified
above? I have used PGP in the past, long time ago, and it was always offline.
So my question is - can I still use GPG to check the signature of the file, pls?
And perhaps, why does GPG so desire the net access for my tasks?

Does it work if you do:

$ gpg --verify <*.sig>
