Fix for Older SSH Keys Not Working on Windows Git
Fix for Older SSH Keys Not Working on Windows Git
If your old SSH keys are not working on Windows after installing the latest Git client and tools, and you're being prompted to login (~/.ssh/config configuration being ignored), the fix is to add the following line to the bottom of the C:\Program Files\Git\etc\ssh\ssh_config file:
Host * PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-rsa
That's it. It will work again.
