encryptiongpgwindows
I am trying to decrypt multiple files to a different directory keeping the existing filenames. When i run the below syntax it seems to decrypt them ok but it only ouputs to the screen. I would like to either output the files with the same name to a different directory or overwrite the exciting files with the same name. Can this be done with gpg? Here is my syntax:
FOR %i in (C:\GPGFILES\*.gpg) do (gpg --batch --yes --passphrase key123 --decrypt "%i")
here is the way to do it in powershell.
Save as a .ps1 file.
Set execution to remotesigned from powershell prompt (launch with run as administrator): Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
I created and tested this script for you based on what you asked
You need then to create a scheduled task that call powershell.exe with the script as argument
$folder_source="c:\source"
$folder_dest="c:\dest"
$twin_files=@(".flv",".mpg")
foreach ($file in (get-childitem $folder_source))
{
$move=$true
foreach ($ext in $twin_files)
{
$filetocheck=$file.FullName+"$ext"
if (!(Test-Path $filetocheck))
{
write-Output "$filetocheck not exist"
$move=$false
}
}
if ($move -eq $true)
{
write-output "files are being moved for $($file.FullName)"
move-Item $file.FullName $folder_Dest
foreach ($ext in $twin_files)
{
$filetocheck=$file.FullName+"$ext"
move-Item $filetocheck $folder_Dest
}
}
}

You need the
--outputargument. If you don't tell it where to output the file, it will only print the output to the screen.So:
