[Gpg4win-users-en] pinentry asks the same password three times (Psi 0.13, three accounts with the same private key)

[???????? ????????]

Hm, I found an old key in registry 

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\GNU\GnuPG]
"gpgProgram"="C:\\Program Files\\GNU\\GnuPG\\gpg.exe"

I manually removed it. Psi now finds gpg in the PATH. Thanks.

Werner, I have ONE key, and tree accounts in Psi using this key. pinentry
asks the same password three times.

That is a dummy.  gpg2.exe always uses --use-agent; you can't change that.

I am not sure whether I unserstand your problem.  If you have different
keys, the agent caches the passphrases for each key separate.  Different
subkeys are also viewed as different keys.

Please don't do that.  A gpg.exe is installed in the path and Psi should use
that one instead of a hard coded fill filename.  If you really need a full
filename, use
 
  C:\Program Files\GNU\GnuPG\pub\gpg.exe

This pub directory is the one published in %PATH%.  The gpg.exe there is a
kind of symlink.  (Run "gpg --version --version" to see what I mean).



Salam-Shalom,
