How to decrypt a file using GPG/GnuPG

Decrypting a file is just as easy. Simply run this command:

Code:

# gpg --output 
 --decrypt 

Replace

with the name of the file you want to produce, decrypted. Replace with the name of the encrypted file. For example:

Code:

# gpg --output test.txt --decrypt /home/tor/test.txt.gpg

If you only have the the pass phrase (password) you can decrypt using --symmetric

Code:

# gpg --output  --symmetric .gpg
