Overview

PGP Decrypt File lets you open any PGP- or GPG-encrypted file using your own private key — entirely inside your browser. The OpenPGP decryption runs locally via WebAssembly, so your private key, passphrase, and the decrypted file content are never transmitted to any server. This matters for encrypted files: the whole point of PGP is keeping data private, and a server-side decryption tool would undermine that entirely. Paste or upload your private key, supply your passphrase, drop in the .pgp or .gpg file, and download the restored original — no account required, no file size quota on the server side.

Common Use Cases

  • Decrypt Received Documents — Open encrypted files sent to you by colleagues or clients who used your public key to protect them in transit.
  • Access Encrypted Backups — Recover documents, archives, or media stored in PGP-encrypted backups without installing desktop GPG software.
  • Verify End-to-End Privacy — Security-conscious users can inspect the tool's client-side behaviour and confirm no network requests are made during decryption.
  • Quick One-Off Decryption — Decrypt a single .gpg file on a shared or locked-down machine where installing GnuPG or GPG Suite is not an option.
  • Developer & DevOps Workflows — Decrypt secrets or configuration files encrypted with team PGP keys during local development without a full GPG keyring setup.

How It Works
1

Import Your Private Key

Upload or paste your PGP private key and enter the passphrase if your key is password-protected.

2

Upload Encrypted File

Select the PGP encrypted file you want to decrypt. The file should have been encrypted with your public key.

3

Decrypt and Download

The tool decrypts the file using your private key and provides the original file for download.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why can't I decrypt this file?
Ensure you're using the correct private key that corresponds to the public key used for encryption. Also verify your passphrase is correct and the file isn't corrupted.

Will the decrypted file be identical to the original?
Yes, PGP file decryption restores the exact original file with the same content, format, and properties as before encryption.

Can I decrypt files encrypted by others?
Only if the file was encrypted with your public key. You cannot decrypt files encrypted for other recipients unless you have their private key.

Is file decryption secure in the browser?
Yes, all decryption happens locally on your device. Your private key, passphrase, and decrypted files are never transmitted to external servers.

What if the encrypted file is very large?
Large file decryption may take time and use significant browser memory. For very large files, consider using desktop PGP software for better performance.
