Thank you for the response. SCAP workbench installed under
  C:\Program Files (x86)\scap-workbench on Windows 7( This is
  the dir which has ssh binary - ssh.exe ) . As per Martin it
  is possible to avoid win-ssh-askpass prompt if one has
  private ssh key setup but I can't make it work so if someone
  can suggest how to set up ssh public-private key for SCAP
  workbench on Windows ( Win7 ) I will be thankful.
Regards,
  Sachin
Hello Sachin,

Sorry, I've never configured this on Windows, but it looks like with OpenSSH, which scap-workbench uses,
it works similar to linux systems.
You would need to configure:
- known_hosts file for it to stop asking about authenticity of host; and
- config file to specify which identity to use.

On linuxes, they are usually located in ~/.ssh directory.
On Windows, these files may need to be placed in
- C:\Users\<username>\; or
- C:\Program Files (x86)\scap-workbench; as ssh is bundled with SCAP Workbench

Please, note that you probably need to create these files.
