<p>The *.pgp file in question is >5gb (according to my mac) but maybe GPG is unable to decrypt a disk partition and folder structure and only useful to decrypt individual files or emails ?</p>
<p>I have successfully recovered my pgp key</p>
<p>Any assistance appreciated</p>
<p><strong>Expected</strong><br>
I expect to see the file structure as I did in ‘pgp desktop’ which is no longer available on my machine</p>

<p>welcome to the GPGTools support platform. Sorry you are having problems using GPG Suite.</p>
<p>GPG Services is not capable of decryption disk partitions created with PGP Desktop.</p>
<p>You may want to cnosult the Symantec Support about this:<br>
