I see now.  It seems like there was some change between the key I imported and another backup I found.  Now it is working.   Grin

On a laptop I have the program Gpg4win and am using GPA to manage the pgp keys.  Everything on the laptop is working OK.  Now, I want to move the setup off of the laptop.

I have installed the Gpg4win on another W10 system.  I found the .asc backup of my keys on the laptop.  I imported it into GPA on the new system.  Everything about the key imported in the new system seems correct.  I can view it and change the passphrase etc. 

Here is the problem I am having.  There is a site which requires two factor authentication and requires decrypting a PGP message to get a token.  When I do it on the original laptop and copy the PGP Message to the clipboard it Decrypts as you would expect and give me the token.  On the new system I get this message when I do the same thing '"Clipboard" contained no valid encrypted data.' 

It has got me stumped  Huh, any clues greatly appreciated!
