However there is another set of tools entirely - GnuPG. Recent Windows has ssh-agent service (with support for persistence and Windows security) and I have been using it successfully for a while. Simple set of tools to make working with GPG and SSH keys easier on Windows 10/11. And since I am no longer using gpg-agent in my day to day - I am not planning for this project to follow further GnuPG development. In addition, there are a number of new open source products like age and minisign which are much simpler, could be argued about and have secure defaults. It became obvious to me that common practices recommend somewhat simpler solutions based on OpenSSH and its extensions and since GitHub now allows code signing using OpenSSH certificates - the whole reason for this monstrosity to exists is no more. Nobody should be forced to deal with such a complexity in everyday work.

Both because it is relying on GnuPG set of tools (you could find links to critique below if interested) and because the project itself in order to provide interoperability across different Windows sub-platforms implements unsafe solutions. I am stopping development of this project as it is inherently unsecure and very difficult to properly support. Win-gpg-agent DEPRECATION NOTE - September 2022
