You can use the authentication agent \i{Pageant} so that you do not
need to explicitly configure a key here; see \k{pageant}. If a file
is specified here with Pageant running, PuTTY will first try asking
Pageant to authenticate with that key, and ignore any other keys
Pageant may have. If that fails, PuTTY will ask for a passphrase as

If a private key file is specified here with Pageant running, PuTTY
will first try asking Pageant to authenticate with that key, and
ignore any other keys Pageant may have. If that fails, PuTTY will ask
for a passphrase as normal. You can also specify a \e{public} key file
in this case (in RFC 4716 or OpenSSH format), as that's sufficient to
identify the key to Pageant, but of course if Pageant isn't present
PuTTY can't fall back to using this file itself.
