Which of our tools is giving you problems? Pinetry Mac

Attach a screenshot of the version info for all installed components (how to: https://gpgtools.tenderapp.com/kb/faq/where-can-i-find-version-info...):

Describe your problem. Add as much detail as possible. I just generated a public key, i didn't set a password and never saw an option for a passphrase. I'm trying to decrypt text that was encrypted with my key and it asks me for a passphrase. i'm so confused. i never setup a passphrase or any password at all. can anyone help?

thanks

What did you expect instead

Describe steps leading to the problem.

Are you using any other Mail.app plugins?
