Supersedes old Thunderbird and SeaMonkey GPG plugins
This supersedes the older Thunderbird Portable and SeaMonkey Portable GPG plugins. The launchers of Thunderbird Portable 31.5.0 and SeaMonkey Portable 2.33 will automatically use this new plugin from the %PORTABLEAPPS%\CommonFiles\GPG directory if it is present. Be sure you're using the latest releases instead of allowing the contained app to update itself. GPG data will still be stored within SeaMonkeyPortable\Data\GPG and ThunderbirdPortable\Data\GPG. Unlike the older GPG plugins, this new plugin works with both Thunderbird Portable and SeaMonkey Portable and will be automatically kept up to date by the PortableApps.com Platform.
Hey thanks for updating.
Hey thanks for updating.
I noticed that after the use of gpg from thunderbird there still runs the gpg-agent.exe even after closing thunderbird. Is this the expected behaviour?
I installed gpg in ThunderbirdPortable/App/gpg and pointed via Enigmail settings to that location.
