Authentication -> Generate new SSH key

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

Under the heading "Adding your SSH key to the ssh-agent", Step 1 of the process tells the reader they can execute the commands listed below in either an elevated PowerShell or elevated CMD. The commands in question use PowerShell cmdlets and cannot be used in cmd.exe.

It would be better that this is either rephrased to exclusively use PowerShell, or alternatively the example can be rewritten to use sc.exe.
