PA 16.10.24 asking for pgp password 2x during decryption

[JoeS]

The latest build of PowerArchiver (16.10.24) requires us to enter a PGP decryption password twice. Previous builds did not require this.

It might make sense to require double-entry of a password when you’re setting it, but when you’re decrypting, it’s just unnecessary. My users are grumbling.

@JoeS Thank you Joe. I dont think this was on purpose, @mili will check it out.

Unfortunately, 17.00.91 is still requiring double-entry of the PGP decryption password. I’m reminded of joining wireless networks back in the Windows XP days.

My user base is perseverating on this issue. It’s their primary association with PowerArchiver.
