Hello Bitwarden Community.

I’ve been using Bitwarden for several years and this is my first need of support. So, good job! :slight_smile:

Following the guide: Bitwarden SSH Agent | Bitwarden

  • I stopped/disabled the OpenSSH Authentication Service
  • I enabled the SSH agent in settings (and restarted the Bitwarden app)
  • I created an SSH key in the Bitwarden Client
  • I ran ssh-add -L and get permission denied:

I am currently using Putty (via mremoteng) and msys2 (though I have that setup to use Windows SSH):

I wanted to migrate to fresh SSH keys , fully managed via Bitwarden.

Any further troubleshooting I can do?

Any invocation of ssh-add (even by itself) gives permission denied.

I have (temporarily) moved my .ssh directory to ssh-backup and get the same issue.
