Did you reported that at gnupg-users? Let's discuss things in the mail thread.
Andre tested it on Windows 10 so in general it works. The problem must be due
to your local configuration.

I did not test 2.1 on windows 10 but 2.0 from gpg4win.

Let's consolidate issues though. To simplify things I resolve all reports
regarding this to my report where I will report on debugging / fixing this in
issue2085.
