Exporting a full private key does not work, no dialog box opens to save the key.

It is ok with the short private key.

Hi @saturneric

I'm running into this issue with the latest v2.1.1 on Windows. I can export Full private key if there is no password, but if there is a password, no file dialog opens after entering the password.

I can also export the short private key. It doesn't ask for a password and just opens the file dialog
I just checked, and exporting the short secret key is actually just exporting the public key, which seems to be why it doesn't ask for a password

Did you use this secret key to do some operations and had already given its password?

I tried with and without doing this. The password prompt shows whether the password is in the cache or not, and once entered, nothing happens. No file dialog

It may be a bug and I will try to figure out it. Please try to check Use pinentry as Password Input Dialog at GnuPG Controller this time.

Using Pinentry worked after restarting the application! Thank you 😄
