Can't load GPG Hash??

[minime]

Hashcat supports 3 types of GPG:

17010 GPG (AES-128/AES-256 (SHA-1($pass)))
17020 GPG (AES-128/AES-256 (SHA-512($pass)))
17030 GPG (AES-128/AES-256 (SHA-256($pass)))

Yours does not seem to be one of them because your hash starts with $gpg$*0* which does not match any of these 3.

with gpg2john you can add a debug flag (-d) and it wil print out information about the file such as the algorithm used. That way you can check which mode your Gpg4win used to create your file.

Thank you, I will check this over the weekend and report back.
