Unfortunately the Windows Subsystem for Linux doesn't yet have USB device support; so there's no way to access the Yubikey from Bash on Windows at the moment. Possibly the updates coming to WSfL in the Creators Update in April might bring us what we're after...

Using PGP on bash on Windows 10

2017-01-29T12:47:51+01:00

Hello there,

I'm trying to import my pgp-key from my yubikey neo into gpg2 on bash on Windows 10, however, I'm getting following error message:

Code:

$ gpg2 --card-status
scdaemon[82]: PC/SC OPEN failed: no service (0x8010001d)
scdaemon[82]: PC/SC OPEN failed: no service (0x8010001d)
gpg: selecting openpgp failed: Card error

I used to have the same error on my Ubuntu machine and ultimately, figured it out there by installing some packages I was missing,
however, this didn't work on my windows machine. I have following gpg-related packages installed:
gnupg2, scdaemon, pcscd, pcsc-tools, gnupg-agent

Does anyone have a solution for that? Is it even possible to use smart-cards on windows bash?
