Check integrity of Gpg4win packages

Usually you can use Microsoft's own methods to check that the installer is signed by one of the current code signing certificates listed below.

Microsoft will normally display the code signature in an user account control dialog when you try to execute the downloaded file; alternatively you can take a look in the file properties with the explorer.

Additional methods how to check the integrity can be found on the Wiki page on integrity checks.

Code Signing Certificate

All Gpg4win exe installer files since April 2016 are signed with the following code signing certificate:

OpenPGP signatures

For gpg4win-3.1.7.exe: https://files.gpg4win.org/gpg4win-3.1.7.exe.sig
For gpg4win-src-3.1.7.exe: https://files.gpg4win.org/gpg4win-src-3.1.7.exe.sig
For gpg4win-3.1.7.tar.bz2: https://files.gpg4win.org/gpg4win-3.1.7.tar.bz2.sig

The signatures have been created with the following OpenPGP certificate:
Intevation File Distribution Key
(Fingerprint: 61AC 3F5E E4BE 593C 13D6 8B1E 7CBD 620B EC70 B1B8)

Since 2017 new releases are additionally signed with a new certificate that matches more modern key standards:
Intevation File Distribution Key
(Fingerprint: 13E3 CE81 AFEA 6F68 3E46 6E0D 42D8 7608 2688 DA1A)

The certificate can also be retrieved from OpenPGP certificate servers. Loading a certificate from a certificate server can be done e.g. via Kleopatra or GPA. Checking the signature of a file is best done with GpgEX via the Explorer.
