I followed Bitbucket's instructions on setting up SSH keys on Windows 10 and everything seems to work except for actually cloning the repository.

I created a new SSH key using `ssh-keygen` and I have verified that `ssh-agent` is running and that my private key is added to my SSH agent.

I then added the public key to my Bitbucket account. Running `ssh -T git@bitbucket.org` says I'm authenticated.

I tried cloning and get permission denied (publickey) error.

Naming the SSH key when generating seemed to cause problems. I generated a new key with all defaults (file path, no pw) and then used that and it worked for me.
