1. Download latest version from [release page](https://github.com/BlackReloaded/wsl2-ssh-pageant/releases/latest) and copy `wsl2-ssh-pageant.exe` to your windows home directory (or other location within the windows file system). Then simlink to your `$HOME/.ssh` directory for easy access
2. Add one of the following to your shell configuration (for e.g. `.bashrc`, `.zshrc` or `config.fish`). For advanced configurations consult the documentation of your shell.
If ssh,ssh-add,gpg etc are very slow (~15-25 seconds) check that wsl2-ssh-pageant resides on the windows file system. This is due to an issue with the WSL interop documented [here](https://github.com/BlackReloaded/wsl2-ssh-pageant/issues/24) and [here](https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/7591)
