It must be configured to accept pubkey auth, as well as having your public key installed properly. You can see that the client tries pubkey but it's not accepted. So, none of us are mindreaders here, and we have zero information about the configuration details of your sshd, which isn't even running Cygwin... So, don't don't be surprised if you are underwhelmed with help.
