Mind you, she's off again to her family and I am unable to watch the repairs first hand. There's also another way to handle it that I forgot to mention. If you have a lot of CLI apps that you don't want in %windir%\system32, you can store them in a separate directory and add that directory to the path. I'm surprised that I forgot about this since this is what I do myself.

Namely, from a command prompt, typing in gpg yields an error stating that gpg isn't registered or available or located or whatever. I took it to mean that gpg hadn't added the sys var stating its true folder location ... but his didn't exist earlier. It's not in the path. Unlike Mac OS X, installed programs have the executable in their own little directories. There isn't a central directory for executables (like /usr/bin) that would be set as a path. You can: - add the directory in which gpg.exe exists to %path% (I forget the directory since I don't use the standard directory in %programfiles%)* - copy gpg and the other related executables to a directory already in %path% (e.g. %windir%\system32) *recommended One way to do the recommended action is to go to Control Panel - System - Advanced - Environment variables. From there, you need to modify the %path% variable. This is located under System Variables. Just add a semicolon followed by the directory where GPG is. This modifies the path for all users and requires admin rights. You can add the directory specifically for the current user by adding a variable named Path (if it doesn't already exist) to User Variables and setting it to %path%;[GPG directory]. There is also the set command, but I'm not sure if it modifies the user's path or the system's path. - -- Windows NT 5.1.2600.2180 | Thunderbird 2.0.0.6 | Enigmail 0.95.5 | GPG 1.4.7 Key ID: 0xF88E034060A78FCB - available on major keyservers and upon request Fingerprint: 4A84 CAE2 A0D3 2AEB 71F6 07FD F88E 0340 60A7 8FCB -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iQEVAwUBRz8df/iOA0Bgp4/LAQOCiQf/f/2prFrUm+jr1IQ0Bf/a/iodE2D5WK46 MpmgSiPFxCNJJSQG/PQ/EwGWMK5+4p+V9aUzGZLCaJRDnNJjTsWz1Tt5KkPJHcFS dr1kD7swmsn2b9/9CSanqBDZYWiUWkUVjbmz5fEp/JM2yUNCsG2i9xqExwlAXUOG 64hhzTemCDeHcb7BCMvUMFqzE3vue3omSh/qwK6Z5A6N+BKMfBACimoLTArioYhS bVM+hHKhs0mXfKWVWcTIisAFrBpbNhqhi8N4m9klTrCj9guaFPpr1t4+xlBhvy8A XVfwPgbHLtq45CiAYvPQV2PqXPnPc/AlauXjkv97kGnW5bSQnqnyig== =Vste -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
