Encrypted File Problem

[Jack]

Are you getting any error messages?  Have you run KMM from command line?

Can you manually decrypt the file?  That will check whether gnupg works  
at all

I'm not a Fedora user, so I want to know whether Fedora 28 uses KDE  
Frameworks or is still on KDE 4.  If it has upgraded to Frameworks  
(KF5), then I wouldn't expect KMM4 to work at all - you would need KMM5.
