also had issues with endeavouros keyring and mirrorlost?

edit; since key issue of archlinux side, reinstalling keyring and mirrorlist is not needed the higlighted is the main solution.

I probably went overboard but i tried the keyring first and only deleting the gnupg folder seemed to work. I tried for an hour messing with it before I got it to finally work and install the updates. Just on one computer though.

removing the gnupg and doint the pacman-key commands especially init option does the job generaly
