Now my second issue is trying to execute this script but using a passphrase for the SSH key. This script doesn't work on task scheduler nor on CMD. The script for this is as it follows.
The log result is:
I would like to know how to, if possible, use the script with the passphrase on the Task Scheduler without asking for a prompt that will stop the script. Even if I have already used
