Gpg4win is a installer package for Windows (2000/XP/2003/Vista) with computer programs and handbooks for EMail and file encryption. Both relevant cryptography standards are supported, OpenPGP and S/MIME (the latter is in progress and currently works with GnuPG2 and Claws Mail). Gpg4win and the software included with Gpg4win are Free Software.

You can choose all or some of the following modules during installation:

GnuPG: The core; this is the actual encryption tool
WinPT: A key manager and helper for various encryption matters
GPA: Another key manager, tasts are simply different
GPGol: A plugin for Microsoft Outlook 2003 (email encryption)
GPGee: A plugin for Microsoft Explorer (file encryption)
Claws Mail: A complete email program including the plugin for GnuPG

Documentation:

Gpg4win for Novices: A handbook specifically for newbies
Gpg4win für Durchblicker: A (German!) handbook about some background, for beginners

Gpg4win can be installed and tested with just a few mouse clicks. Of course you should be administrator of your system or have administration rights.

The best point to start is with the illustrative handbook Gpg4win for Novices.

We recommend to subscribe to the Gpg4win announcement mailing list to be automatically informed about new releases and other important Gpg4win news.

About Gpg4win

The Gpg4win project aims at updating the Gpg4win Windows installation package with GnuPG encryption tool, associated applications and documentation on a regular basis. Especially the documentation (handbooks "Novices" and "Durchblicker") are directly maintained as part of the Gpg4win project.

Another central aim is the united support of both relevant cryptographic standards, OpenPGP and S/MIME. This is work-in-progress, but should be finished by the end of 2007.

Gpg4win is an international project. Due to the origin of the project and many members, German language is fully supported as well. Any additional translators are very welcome!

The main difference compared to all other similar approaches (mainly GnuPP, GnuPT, Windows Privacy Tools and GnuPG-Basics) is that the first piece developed was the Gpg4win-Builder. This builder allows to easily create new gpg4win.exe installers with updated components. It runs best on a GNU/Linux system. Almost all products are even automatically cross-compiled for integration into the installer.

With this concept it is hoped to good practical support to prevent quick aging of the installer package. Because updating is much easier and does not depend on a single person.
