title: How do I exactly add ssh to PATH on windows?
body: <p>When trying to connect to Github on a new (I'm the first to try) Windows work computer, I'm getting this error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>permission denied (Public Key)</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Following instructions on Github, I then tried </p>
  
  <pre><code>ssh -vT git@github.com
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This told me that </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>ssh is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Googling that, I found out that this message means "ssh is not in the PATH".</p>
  
  <p>Trying to add it to my path, I found </p>
  
  <pre><code>Variable name: Path
  Variable value: :\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Shared
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What <em>exactly</em> do I enter to add ssh to the path. I'm not sure if it's </p>
  
  <pre><code>:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Shared\ssh.exe
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>or something else...</p>
