Notes about the PGP file extension:

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The PGP file type is primarily associated with 'Pretty Good Privacy (PGP)' by PGP Corporation.

Cannot access PGP files on windows?

When windows gives you an error message saying that it
"Cannot open PGP files", this means either:

A. You need to identify a program that can open the file
B. Or your registry may be damaged

RECOMMENDED:

In both cases it is strongly recommended that you
run a free scan for registry errors.
