Still a problem trying to get to 2.18.0. Fixed by opening Task Manager and killing ssh. Installed sweetly after that. Insane error on Atlassian's part, moreso that it's gone on so long.

this worked for me.

[Asbjørn Mikkelsen]

still same issue on Sourcetree 2.1.2.5, runnning windows 10.

Killing pageant.exe, ssh-agent.exe, git.exe etc, does not help.

Commented the mentioned issue also.
