Access to the path is denied #22

PowerShell 5.1

When I attempt to use the -OutFilePath parameter, whether I'm using Protect-PGP or Unprotect-PGP, I'm getting an Access to the path is denied error.

If I call Protect-PGP without the -OutFilePath parameter, it'll place the encrypted files in the same directory as the source files. I do not have that option when attempting to run Unprotect-PGP. It seems to require the -OutFilePath parameter to be defined.

This is not a permission issue as I can write to the directory without problems.

The outputfilepath requires full path to file, and not just a folder... if you want to use folder you should use OutputFolderPath.

In other words you tell it the path exactly as required where it's supposed to be saved and under which name.
