== Gpg4win 2.3.0 (November 2015) * Faster crypto operations for larger files/email attachments. Via technical: support for AES-NI in gcrypt. * GpgOL: ** Reading compatibility with email applications that send out standard crypto emails, e.g. as send by Thunderbird/Enigmail by default. Via technical: read support for MIME messages (PGP/MIME and S/MIME) "official" Outlook APIs. ** Prepared for the future to read emails from Gpg4win 3 versions. Technical: the version 3 versions will most likely only create crypto/MIME mails. ** Outlook 2016 Support |

== Gpg4win 3.0-testversion1 (end of 2015) * GnuPG 2.1 integration, will allow [[ECC|elliptic curve cryptography]] * Move installation location from {{{%PROGRAMFILES%\GNU\GnuPG}}} to {{{%PROGRAMFILES%\Gpg4win}}} (To avoids conflicts with other ~Gnu~P~G installers and to use a more logic place to install) * MIME send support for GpgOL * 64bit support for GpgOL |
The other focus is improved usability and automation. |
