<p>welcome to the GPGTools community support platform. Sorry you
are having problems using GPG Suite.</p>
<h2>1. Following is our 'How do I activate GPGServices?' Knowledge
Base article</h2>
<p>URL: <a href="https://gpgtools.tenderapp.com/kb/faq-gpgservices/how-do-i-activate-gpgservices">

<p>Sometimes GPGServices will not show in the contextual menu after
installing GPG Suite. Please check, that GPGServices are activated
correctly:</p>
<ul>
<li>open System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts
> Services</li>
<li>GPGServices needs to be activated in two locations
<ol>
<li>The Files and Folders section <img src="/help/assets/f999e61a2d0308d9b948ce5485ef5cd8bdf75767/GPGS_sys_pref_files_normal.jpg" alt="GPGS_sys_pref_files.jpg"></li>
<li>The Text section please activate: <img src="/help/assets/a74aa21ed7a6fca1d1d7b06158958ca0fff89c26/GPGS_sys_pref_text_normal.jpg" alt="GPGS_sys_pref_text.jpg"></li>
</ol>
</li>
</ul>
<p>With both sections enabled, retry to use GPGServices from the
contextual menu. In case the issue persists, also try using the
services menu from the menubar, e.g. TextEdit > Services >
OpenPGP:</p>

<p>In rare occasions, GPGServices may not show in the contextual
menu and the menubar, despite being correctly activated.</p>
<ol>
<li>Download and install the latest <a href="https://gpgtools.org/#gpgsuite">GPG Suite</a></li>
</ol>
<p>Should the issue persist:</p>
<ol>
<li>Download and install <a href="http://www.titanium.free.fr/onyx.html">Onyx</a><br></li>
<li>launch Onyx</li>
<li>select "Automation" and make sure all three "Maintenance"
options are ticked</li>
<li>press "Execute"to start</li>
<li>once the process is done, restart your system</li>
</ol>

<p>After the system restart, open TextEdit and see if GPGServices
shows in the contextual menu.</p>
<p>Let me know if this did work and if it didn't, which exact app
you are trying to use the GPGServices with.</p>
<p>All the best,<br>

<p>The issue remains even after the proposed remedy.<br>
Otherwise I wouldn’t have reported it.</p>

<p>same here. It's still not working. I tried to encrypt a file
using the finder. But the services are not shown using the finder.
It's working fine in TextEdit.</p>
<p>Thx<br>

We've had a few users report
problems with Commander Pro. So what happens is, Commander Pro
seems to completely remove the Services menu in macOS finder.</p>
<p>I would consider this behavior fairly intrusive since it tampers
with core macOS functionality.</p>
<p>Did you report this problem to <a href="support@eltima.com">Eltima support</a>? If not, I'd suggest to do
so - maybe they are not aware of this problem. It would be great to
keep us posted about any responses or fixes that may come out of
Eltima.</p>
<p>All the best,<br>

the Services menu in macOS.<br>
We recommend to either leave Commander Pro uninstaller or update
Commander One.</p></div>Steve
