Re: Error trying to use private key

I do not think, this has anything to do with any private key (after all, your code does not even show any use of any private key).

I'm pretty sure that your value of SshHostKeyFingerprint is wrong or incompatible with the version of WinSCP you are using. Show us the value, if you need our help.

Error trying to use private key

I'm getting a error trying to use a ppk file.
Error: The value supplied is not valid, or the property is read-only. Change the value, and then try again.

What am I doing wrong?

Thx.
