    Ive been trying for a while now and Ive followed these steps carefully- https://powdertoy.co.uk/Wiki.html?id=win32_code_setup And i entered the contents of id_rsa.pub into the key box, but no matter how i try i get,

    "Oops! The key is invalid. It cannot contain newlines. Ensure you've copied the file correctly."


    Any help?

    you copy/paste the contents of the file, don't type them out manually, any line breaks you see are probably not real.

    Somewhere there may be characters \n that mean "New line" and are called newlines. The key must be with no new lines. It must be a straight line of text.
