I assume you used
Gpg2 --batch --passphrase pass -o c:\temp\temp.txt -d c:\temp\file.pgp
That is two dashes for the long options.
--passphrase does not work with gpg2. You will be asked by a pop-up
Window for the passphrase. That requires that GnuPG has been fully
installed.
What version are you using. Did you used a Gpg4win installer?
If you are using the command line you may want to add the option
-v
to see more diagnostics. If you are not using the latest gpg2 version it
is possible that the imported secret hast been protected using the IDEA
algorithms which - for patent reason was not support by older GnuPG
versions. You need at least GnuPG 2.020 and Libgcrypt 1.5.2. Running
gpg2 --version
shows the the GnuPG and Libgcrypt version.
Salam-Shalom,
Werner
