Welcome to the forum! The key has a header and footer with a specific format.
Header from my key:
-----BEGIN PGP PRIVATE KEY BLOCK-----
Footer from my key:
-----END PGP PRIVATE KEY BLOCK-----
Notice the number of hyphens, and the spaces between words.
Typically, if a user saves the file directly from the installation, it’s format is unchanged and can be opened via the GUI later for recovery. However, If the key was copy/pasted, this may have resulted in additional characters, depending on which text editor was used.
Please respond after checking, thanks.
Thank you. I did it correctly.
