What do you mean by "changed"? Did you change the key? Then it is clear that the decryption does not work. If a file was encrypted by key A then it has to be decrypted with the same key A. If you create a new key B you cannot decrypt files with it which were encrypted with key A. When you get the error "No secret key" that means that you still have to import the correct key.

Hi, did you yourself encrypt these messages? Then you have to use the same key for decryption as you did for the encryption. If you deleted or lost the private key that you used for encryption than there is no chance to decrypt the files. With regards, Christoph
