1. Download and open Ubuntu WSL. You can find this in the Microsoft Store.

2. Type: ssh-keygen -t ecdsa

3. You will get prompted, "Enter file in which to save the key (/home/vinguyen/.ssh/id_ecdsa):", just press Enter on your keyboard

4. You will get prompted, "Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):", just press Enter on your keyboard

5. Type: cd .ssh

6. Type: cat *.pub (if this does not work, enable copy and paste on Ubuntu WSL: https://www.howtogeek.com/353200/how-to-enable-copy-and-paste-keyboard-shortcuts-in-windows-10s-bash-shell/)

7. Copy the output string. It will look something like this: ecdsa-sha2-nistp256 AAAAE2...

8. Login to intra: https://profile.intra.42.fr/
