Greetings.
I set this all up years ago, I just got a new computer, I'm not an expert
with Windows, and I've been unable to find my problem with Google.
I have Windows 10, I have emacs, I have Org 9.0.3 (yes, I need to update),
and I have GPG4Win. I have entries in my .emacs file:
(require 'org-crypt)
(org-crypt-use-before-save-magic)
(setq org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance (quote ("crypt")))
[...]
(setq org-crypt-key "xxxxxxxx")
;; GPG key to use for encryption
[...]
(global-set-key "\C-cd" 'org-decrypt-entry)
(global-set-key "\C-ce" 'org-encrypt-entry)
But when I try to decrypt something, I get this error:
Searching for program: no such file or directory, gpg
The only responses I can find are to add gpg to my %PATH% , but
I don't think my employer's GPO will let me.
I was hoping to find a place in org-crypt where "gpg" is defined so that
I can specify a full path instead, but as yet, I haven't found it.
Can somebody give me a push?

That's very limitting indeed. In various GNU+Linux system distributions,
even the user-friendly ones such as Trisquel ([1]), allow each user to
have their own ${PATH}.
I cannot help you on solving Windows only-issues (not to be confused
with: Emacs or Org mode issues manifested in Windows), so I suggest you
to install a free/libre system distribution such as Trisquel ([1])
instead.

There is a machine/system %PATH% and a Current User %PATH%.
Normally GPOs will block you from modifying the system %PATH% but
allow you to change the User Path. This may be an option.

I'd take a look at ~C-h v -gpg TAB~ -> possible suggestion is
epg-gpg-program which points to "gpg" by default.
~org-encrypt-string~ uses epg for encryption purposes so changing
that program path should fix the issue.

Thank you!!!!! Your suggestion led me to the answer.
In our last episode, the evil Dr. Lacto had captured our hero,

I missed the most important entry in my .emacs file:
(setq exec-path '("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\GNU\\GnuPG"))
The file path has changed on my new computer
(setq exec-path '("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\GnuPG\\bin"))
and now gpg.exe is in emacs's local exec-path.

This was the variable I couldn't figure out. TIL that you can tab-complete
in the middle of a variable too.
