Enter private key passphrase

When using a public/private key pair, generated with puttygen, and adding the ppk file to a ssh session, it keeps prompting for a private key passphrase, no matter what I type, keeps prompting for a passphrase, finally failing to connect.
While, for example with MobaXterm, it will instantly pick it up from paegant. Ive tried with keys loaded in pageant , no keys, and paegant not running, the issue remains, making all machines using public/private keys created with putty gen either unusable or forcing to change the format of the private keys.
I created a new pair of keys, with no passphrase, and still prompts for a passphrase that doesnt exist.
Agent type set tried both automatic and paegant.
Also tried converting this existing key into openSsh format, and IT WORKS!
ssh-keygen -o -a 100 -t ed25519
(then)
ssh-copyid [email protected]
open puttygen and load id_ed25519 save in all the formats I possibly could..
save keypath in kitty, works.
ssh from cmd, works.
Whatever I do in tabby.. cannot get to to work..
Decided to just rm the data dir and all preferences and start over..
working with this format..
