WinPT or Windows Privacy Tray is frontend to the Gnu Privacy Guard (GnuPG) for the Windows platform. Released under GPL, it is compatible with OpenPGP compliant software.

WinPT represents a collection of user interface tools designed to ease the use of asymmetric encryption software. Based on GPG (GnuPG), and (Open)PGP-compatible, WinPT is intended for Windows users to use for everyday message signing, verification, encryption and general key management.

If installation defaults are used, WinPT will then reside in the task bar tray, and on the right-click menu within Windows Explorer. A Start menu item includes launchers for a GPG commandline (console), WinPT tray, and documentation.

On April 4, 2007, the project's author, Timo Schulz, announced that development on WinPT has been suspended for an indefinite period.
