+## Understanding GpgFrontend
+
+**What is GpgFrontend?** GpgFrontend is a user-friendly, cross-platform tool
+designed to facilitate the use of OpenPGP encryption, making it easier for
+individuals to protect their privacy and secure their communications.
+
+**What can I do with GpgFrontend?** Beyond basic encryption and decryption,
+GpgFrontend supports digital signatures to verify the integrity and origin of
+messages. Users can manage and generate key pairs, encrypt files and emails, and
+sign their communications for added security.
+
+**How can I obtain and start using GpgFrontend?** You can download the latest
+version of GpgFrontend from its GitHub repository. Visit [GpgFrontend's
+Downloads Page](https://www.gpgfrontend.bktus.com/#/downloads) to find the most
+recent release. Installation is straightforward: just follow the ReadME
+instructions to set it up.
+
+## OpenPGP and GnuPG Explained
+
+**How do OpenPGP and GnuPG relate?** OpenPGP serves as a standardized protocol
+for encrypting and decrypting data, which GpgFrontend supports. GnuPG, or GPG,
+implements the OpenPGP standard, providing the necessary cryptographic
+functions. GpgFrontend leverages GnuPG for operations like encryption,
+decryption, and key management.
+
+**Which operating systems does GpgFrontend support?** GpgFrontend is a
+cross-platform application that supports Windows, macOS, and Linux, making it
+accessible to nearly all users for their privacy and data protection needs.
+
+## Troubleshooting GnuPG Installation Issues
+
+**Encountering 'GnuPG not installed correctly'?** This issue typically arises
+when GpgFrontend cannot locate GnuPG on your system. Here are steps to address
+this based on your operating system:
+
+### For macOS Users
+
+- **Install GnuPG for OSX** from
+  [here](https://sourceforge.net/p/gpgosx/docu/Download/), or install
+  GpgFrontend using Homebrew with `brew install --cask gpgfrontend`.
+- If GnuPG is installed in a custom location, please tell GpgFrontend where the
+  gpgconf binary it is at GnuPG Controller.
+
+### For Linux Users
+
+- Install GnuPG via your package manager (apt, yum, etc.).
+- If GnuPG is installed in a custom location, please tell GpgFrontend where the
+  gpgconf binary it is at GnuPG Controller.
+
+### For Windows Users
+
+- The latest GpgFrontend versions include GnuPG. It's recommended to download
+  the most recent GpgFrontend version.
+- Alternatively, download GnuPG from
+  [here](https://www.gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32-2.4.0_20221216.exe)
+  and reinstall if necessary.
+
+### Additional Assistance
+
+- For more detailed guidance, refer to the quick start manual available at
+  [Quick Start Guide](quick-start.md).
+
+## Reporting Bugs and Contributing
+
+**Found a bug?** If you encounter any issues with GpgFrontend, please report
+them via the GitHub repository. You can also contact me directly if you're not
+on GitHub; see the [Contact](contract.md) section for details.
+
+**Interested in contributing?** Feel free to modify GpgFrontend's code and
+submit a Pull Request with your enhancements. You can also send patches via
+email if you prefer to contribute anonymously.
+
+## Why the Need for GnuPG?
+
+**Importance of Installing GnuPG** GpgFrontend itself does not handle direct
+encryption or decryption; it requires GnuPG for these operations. This design
+choice ensures higher security, allowing users to rely on their own verified
+version of GnuPG.
+
+## Understanding BETA Versions
+
+**What does "BETA" signify in a release?** A "BETA" label indicates that the
+version may not have undergone comprehensive testing, particularly for new
+modules. While beta versions are carefully evaluated post-release, and stable
+versions are published when ready, the aim is to avoid beta releases from
+version 2.0.0 onwards, barring exceptional circumstances.
+
+## Security and Privacy
+
+**How does GpgFrontend ensure my communications are secure?** GpgFrontend uses
+GnuPG to implement the OpenPGP standard, securing your data with robust
+encryption algorithms to prevent unauthorized access. It supports public and
+private key encryption methods, ensuring only intended recipients can decrypt
+and read your messages.
