VB.NET GPG Password Handling Enhancement

Job ID: 38381380

Budget: $250 – $750 CAD

I am in possession of a VB.NET application developed with Visual Studio 2010. It sends and receives files using WINSCP, encrypts and decrypts files with OpenGPG, and operates perfectly under the Windows 7 platform. Recently, an issue has arisen when using the same application on Windows 10 platform β€”it requests a decryption password, which it shouldn't.

Your responsibility for this project will entail:
* Access and understand the existing source code (which I can provide)
* Pinpoint the reason behind the unexpected password prompt within the file decryption process
* Formulate and implement a solution that prevents the software from soliciting a decryption password on the Windows 10 platform

You should ideally:
* Be proficient in VB.NET programming language
* Have experience working with GPG encryption/decryption
* Possess solid knowledge about WINSCP files handling
* Demonstrate successful debugging ability and problem-solving knack
* Have experience in developing software compatible with various Windows OS platforms

Your application should demonstrate your understanding of this issue and how you would approach resolving it. Please also provide examples of your previous VB.NET and GPG projects.
