[Gpg4win-users-en] Why are my encrypted files AUTOMATICALLY decrypting?

Hash: SHA512

GPG4Win 2.2.5, Windows 7.

Kleopatra Settings > GnuPG System > GPG Agent
* Expire cached PINs after N seconds: 1
* Do not use the PIN cache when signing: Checked
* Disalow the use of an external password cache: Checked

Which in turn made my gpg-agent.conf get these options:

max-cache-ttl 6000
default-cache-ttl 1
ignore-cache-for-signing
no-allow-external-cache

Created a text file called example.txt with the message "This is an
example.", encrypted it using CLI, then decrypted it using cli,
inputing my passphrase. After 1 second I repeated the command and I
have to reinput the passphrase.

GnuPG CLI works correctly on my end.

With the same file, I opened Kleopatra and used the Decrypt/Verify
utility, default options. I input my passphrase and it decrypted it
into "example" file. After one second, fast enough to even go to the
decrypting part, I do the same steps and I had to input my passphrase
again.

Kleopatra works correctly on my end.

Try looking at the options and check the same options I have.
