error: GPGME error: No data - keyring master key not found on keyserver

I can't update msys2. I've tried a fresh install, but it still doesn't seem to work. I'm not behind a proxy or anything.

$ pacman -Syu error: GPGME error: No data :: Synchronizing package databases... mingw32 541.0 KiB 5.74M/s 00:00 [#####################] 100% mingw32.sig 5.4 KiB 0.00B/s 00:00 [#####################] 100% error: GPGME error: No data error: failed to update mingw32 (invalid or corrupted database (PGP signature)) mingw64 is up to date msys is up to date error: database 'mingw32' is not valid (invalid or corrupted database (PGP signature))

I've tried refreshing the keys but no such luck.

It seems it's the Pacman Keyring Master Key that can't be found. The list of keys is below.

I think I just reinstalled? I can't remember. It was such a long time ago.
