What's so "not easy" with pageant? *headscratch*

Put a shortcut to pageant in the autostart folder, and in the settings
menu, tell it where to find the user's *.ppk file (you can use
variables like %userprofile%), all done.
If the keyfile has a password set, the popup appears, if not, the key
is loaded.

Using pageant is actually very elegant, as you will have your key
available for all things ssh, i.e. WinSCP, PuTTY, X2Go, ... and only
have to specify it in one single location.
