SSH Key Not Working

See original GitHub issue

I am on version 1.0.75 on Ubuntu, and whenever I try to connect to my server with my SSH private key, I get the following error: Connecting to 45.77.239.27 Loading private key from /home/emil/.ssh/id_rsa SHA256 fingerprint: 246c4c289b674e79ca40586c44faba861e2c3dd9524308b6d1aad0edd25b1187 All configured authentication methods failed

My SSH key is configured in the remote server, why is this coming up? The SSH key is not encrypted.

The situation can be corrected by exporting the key to Putty Key Generator. Open Putty Key Generator, File - Load Private Key. Then we do Conversions - Export OpenSSH key. Accordingly, then in the connection settings, select our new exported key. This option helped me. Best regards.
