Although using the same homedir should not hurt much, gnupg-2.1 will migrate 
your secret keys to a new format but leave the files in a way that gnupg-2.0 
can still read them. But there will be problems with the gnupg-agent as gnupg 
needs the same version of the agent that the program belongs to.

To avoid that you should specify --homedir c:\testhome or something on the 
commandline to 2.1 calls. Then it will use that as a different homedir.

e.g.:

gpg --homedir c:\testhome --expert --full-gen-key 

would generate you a key in c:\testhome

Regards,
Andre

This works now like a charm. 

Thanks,
