<p>welcome to the GPGTools support platform. Sorry you are having problems using GPG Suite.</p>
<p>The words password / passphrase describe the same thing. We are still looking to unify the wording.</p>
<p>We have a ticket for this problem. I connected this discussion with the existing ticket. That means, should this discussion get closed, it will be re-opened as soon as the ticket is closed. That way you'll stay in the loop and get notified as soon as we have news. Feel free to open a new discussions should you run into further problems or need assistance.</p>
<p>Best,<br>

<p>OK, that's even more confusing. I'm using the password I created. Now I'm<br>
being told I have used 2/3 attempts, which I can only assume using the 3rd<br>
will lock me out? How do I proceed with the data files I've already<br>
downloaded?</p>

<p>This issue continue to haunt me. I never was able to get GPG to accept my<br>
passphrase/password last night. So today, I had the data re-encrypted<br>
using a newly created public key. So after downloading a massive amount of<br>
data again, I attempted to decrypt and am getting the same message. This<br>
is twice that the password I used to create the key hasn't worked, and now<br>
I'm faced with the possibility of having to download this data a third<br>
time.</p>
<p>Can you please help?</p>

<p>Turns out the files in question were encrypted with an old key. Chris will request the files to be encrypted with his new key and then hopefully be able to decrypt as expected.</p>
<p>I'm closing this discussion. Should you need further assistance or have questions you can re-open this discussion here or open a new one any time.</p>
