'With the root user?' As I said, I am the root user. In a fit of rage and because I don't want to give more data to Microsoft, I decided to install the Linux Mint ISO onto one of my USB sticks (without verifying). Maybe I'll just use regular Linux for GnuPG.

Yes as root try

apt-get install gnupg2

And

apt-get install gnupg

I'm happy that you're getting off the M$ train.

Thanks for helping me so much. Sorry, is it okay if I see you as a friend? We're both people who hate Microsoft's privacy issues. I'm curious, what's your main operating system?

Yeah man let's be friends. I'm on Manjaro right now but I started with Mint. I am interested in more free and more privacy focused distros.
