Can't sync at all because of an ssh key location error

Bug description I can't sync remote and local at all, when I try to I get ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'c:\C\Users\*private_name*\Documents\*private*.key' as an error, which is basically telling me that it's trying to get this key from c:\C\Users\..., putting a C before the Users file for no reason. I have no idea what caused this, as I didn't change any of the config files at all or the key's location.

Thing to note is that I do NOT want to sync my ssh key with the remote folder, and as far as I know I don't even need an ssh key to access this server. I'm very confused as to why this extension (and the 2 forks on the marketplace) gets this error.

I'm sorry for all the censoring, I'm an intern at a company, don't want to risk anything. The IPs should only be accessible internally and shouldn't be exposed to the web but I just don't know enough about that to feel comfortable sharing info. As a side note, I mainly want to sync from local to remote, almost never the opposite, but I don't know if that changes things at all in my situation

Config file

{    
    "name": "Test Server",
    "host": "***.***.***.***",
    "protocol": "sftp",
    "secure": true,
    "port": 22,
    "username": "*********",
    "password": "********",
    "remotePath": "/home/*private_user*/*private_project*",
    "uploadOnSave": true
}

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Try to sync any file, no matter which way (to or from)
