Title: Small problem when verifying signature Post by: Sumarokov on May 07, 2021, 09:48:50 AM I am in the process of upgrading to the latest version of Electrum using Windows, Installer version.
Clicked on the link in my wallet and it took me to the site (opened up a Microsoft browser window, though I generally use Chrome). Downloaded the new Installer version, which seems to have correctly substituted itself for the old one. Now I want to verify the signature. But when I click on "signature" on the web page, it just takes me to a new browser page: https://download.electrum.org/4.1.2/electrum-4.1.2-setup.exe.asc Which has BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE ---- all the code -- END PGP SIGNATURE But how do I save this so that I can verify it on Kleopatra? Left click just opens the browser window, right click does not let me download it.... This seems like a stupid question, but how do I save this file (signature) in downloads? When I try to use "save as", it will only let me save it as a text file. Title: Re: Small problem when verifying signature Post by: mocacinno on May 07, 2021, 09:49:42 AM Your guess is correct, just right-click on the link and save the .asc file locally... Then use whatever tool you have installed to verify the signature.
If you have more questions: you can search the forum, and if you don't find the answer: don't hesitate to ask them here :) Title: Re: Small problem when verifying signature Post by: Sumarokov on May 07, 2021, 09:54:11 AM Thanks, it has now worked.
I am not sure what was happening before. But I saved it as an "asc" file and now it has verified it as a valid signature.

When I try to use "save as", it will only let me save it as a text file. Thanks, it has now worked. When clicking 'Save as', leave the file name by default, then in the format type select 'All Files' (not 'Text File').I am not sure what was happening before. But I saved it as an "asc" file and now it has verified it as a valid signature. Maybe you want to re-verify it with the signature file that saves in the way above. https://i.ibb.co/PzxbPgg/56957960.png https://i.ibb.co/gjqTqg2/56957960.png |
