GpgOL not using Windows certificate store for S/MIME decryption

[dadaok (dada)]

Hello,

I’m experiencing an issue with GpgOL and S/MIME certificates stored in the Windows user’s personal certificate store. My S/MIME private key resides in this store, but it is “not exportable”.

I need GpgOL to utilize this private key directly from the Windows store without importing it into the GPG/GPGSM keyring. However, when I receive an encrypted message, GpgOL displays the error ‘No secret key found to decrypt the message,’ indicating it’s searching within the GPG keyring instead of the Windows store.

Is there any configuration or guidance that would enable GpgOL to access the key directly from the Windows personal certificate store?

Hi!

@dadaok

Is there any configuration or guidance that would enable GpgOL to access the key directly from the Windows personal certificate store?

There is a ticket for retrieving S/MIME keys from the store so I’m sure that this isn’t possible (yet).
