When I generate an ssh key in a different path than the default I can't access by ssh in github, I don't know what the problem is, but I know I have tried many times to generate and use a ssh with a different path than the default and all my attempts have failed.
Can someone explain why? Or say where am I going wrong
It works:
PS C:\Users\sjoao\.ssh> ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "[email protected]"
Generating public/private ed25519 key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (C:\Users\sjoao/.ssh/id_ed25519):
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:

The only difference is my answer to 'Enter file in which to save the key (C:\Users\sjoao/.ssh/id_ed25519):' I add both in the list of ssh-keys of github
