How to Verify If Release Signing Key Is Signed By Master Signing Key On Windows For Newbies?
submitted 4 years ago by CompleteDoubterII from (self.privacy)
Hello, I am completely new to GnuPG and, according to Qubes' website, I must verify that my download of the release key is signed by the Qubes Master key. I don't know how to do that on Windows. Here are the comparisons: https://anonfile.com/s6yfg7uanf/Capture_PNG, https://anonfile.com/naz3gbu8nf/Capture_PNG. Please help me!

I don't have Linux. I have it as a VM, but I don't know how to transfer files there.

You can use the shared folder feature of VirtualBox, or you can mount your Linux home directory as a Windows drive with something like sshfs. Or use and ftp program that supports SSH like Filezilla.
I'd do Filezilla. Just make sure in Linux you have run
sudo apt-get install openssh-server

I can't open my GPG in my Linux VM. I have Debian, and before I upgraded it, when I clicked on anything, it didn't open GnuPG. https://anonfile.com/h377p1u4n5/clip0003_avi After upgrading, I can't even find where the executable files are (I extracted the package to the documents folder). (I'll upload video proof of this part later.)

I can watch your video later, but you could try restarting the VM or using Linux Mint instead.
You want to get GPG from apt-get and not try to install it manually.
sudo apt-get install gnupg2
Or maybe
sudo apt-get install gnupg

'Sudo' isn't a command, my VM says. I've looked through here (https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/354928/bash-sudo-command-not-found) but it's not working!

Which part didn't work? Can you switch to the root user?
You can just install gpg as root if that's easier.

The command 'visudo' doesn't work. I am the root user, according to the 'whoami' command. When I do the 'apt-get install sudo -y' command, it says that there's no such package available for installation.
