Scp Ssh Config
In my.ssh/config, and I still have ssh auto-completion working just fine against hosts listed in.ssh/config and /etc/hosts. You do need to add the host to.ssh/config as the OP stated: Host my-awesome-host Hostname the.real.host.name (Or, you can add a host entry to /etc/hosts, which is another source for the Debian/Ubuntu scripts.).
All account names must be specified in lower case. See PATTERNS in sshconfig for more information on patterns for wildcards. When configuring user/group based rules with a domain user or group, use the following format. You may also set up scp with chroot, by implementing a custom shell that would only allow scp and sftp.

So, there are numerous tool that can help you login to your server. My personal preference over the past few years have been Bitvise SSH client and WinSCP. I still use them because they are very straight forward and highly configurable. But there are times where you just want to run a command or upload a single file without going through all the trouble of logging in and managing Private Keys.
Follow the below steps to configure SSH and SCP on your system.
The first thing you need to do is Enable OpenSSH in Windows optional features. Skip this step if it is already enabled. Search and open 'optional feature' from start menu and then click on 'Add a feature' and search for 'OpenSSH Client' and click on install.
Now that you've enabled OpenSSH run ssh in windows terminal to verify it has been installed correctly.
Now you can connect to remote server using ssh commands that you are used to in linux systems.
TBH, everytime we want to log in, we have to enter the host name or location of private key or password. And now suddenly things don't seem direct and easy.
Fret not.
You can save your profiles inside a config file located in C:Users<username>.sshconfig. Edit the code structure given below and save it in config file. Give it a friendly name, I've used 'wt' in the example, you will use this Host to login later. Update the HostName, UserIdentityFile, and Port. You can use as many profiles as you want. Just put another profile in new line and make sure it is properly indented.
Now just enter ssh wt to login automatically.
Seems great? Well, we are not done yet. Let's take it to the next step.
