Hi  Cheesy, I want to verify this paperwallet creator
https://github.com/cantonbecker/bitcoinpaperwallet

Canton Becker says that I can verify authenticity through GPG, so I've installed GPGforWin with all features: GnuPg, Kleopatra, GPA, GpgOL, GpgEX. I run Windows 10 64 bit.

In the README Canton says: 'go to appropriate directory and type in these two commands':
  gpg --recv-key 36E1D9B6
  gpg --verify --with-fingerprint generate-wallet.html.sig generate-wallet.html

So, I open as an admin 'command prompt' and I type:        gpg --recv-key 36E1D9B6

I get:

gpg: requesting key 36E1D9B6 from hkp server keys.gnupg.net
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found
gpg: total number processes: 0
gpg: keyserver communications error: keyserver helper internal error
gpg: keyserver communications error: General error
gpg: keyserver receive failed: General error

when I try to type this line:         gpg --verify --with-fingerprint generate-wallet.html.sig generate-wallet.html

I get:

gpg: impossible open 'generate-wallet.html.sig': No such file or directory
gpg: verify signatures failed: No such file or directory

Can anyone help me?  Grin
