"Privacy" menu options stay grayed out/missing privacy icons

Hello, all.

I am trying out The Bat 3.80 Professional and am having trouble getting GnuPG/GPGShell 3.51 to work. The problem is when I try to open a PGP-encrypted email, the four options under the Privacy menu at the top of the window are grayed out. Plus, I don't see any privacy-related icons to be able to click to decrypt the message.

Here's my PGP.ini contents:

[PGP]
Default Key A=0
Default Key B=0
Encrypt to DefKey=1
Compress=0
Cache Dec=1
Cache Sig=1
Minutes Dec=30
Minutes Sig=30
Comment Block=The Bat! 3.80
Pubring=X:\Program Files\GPGshell\pubring.pgp
Secring=X:\Program Files\GPGshell\secring.pgp
RandSeed=X:\Program Files\GPGshell\randseed.bin
Key Manager=X:\Program Files\GPGshell\GPGkeys.exe

Any ideas what to check to enable these privacy menu options? It's as if an important .dll or some other routine isn't even being called when starting up the client. I don't know what else to check. All the OpenPGP options seem enabled and correctly configured to me.

Did you set the right PGP version for your system?

Tools -> OpenPGP -> Choose OpenPGP version -> GNU Privacy Guard (GPG)

I hope this helps.

Yes, I set that version correctly, to:

GNU Privacy Guard (GPG)

Also, although unnecessary thanks to a registry tweak I made, I manually added the entire GnuPG directory to the Windows PATH. Still, the menu options under "Privacy" remain grayed out.

just a wild guess: did you try with a message you sent yourself? maybe TB just don't recognize the mail to be encrypted?!

It doesn't matter if the message is from me to myself or not, the problem still occurs.
