Hm,

I am wondering why this makes a difference. The sshd comes with
x2goclient and should be the same. Therefore it should know the same
options as on Windows 10.

I can see the same message on Windows 10 when calling sshd directly,
but I do not see any reference to "cygdrive":

"C:\Program Files (x86)\x2goclient\sshd.exe" -f
c:\Users\USER\.x2go\etc\sshd_config
c:\\Users\\USER\\.x2go\\etc\\sshd_config line 3: Deprecated option
UsePrivilegeSeparation
Could not load host key: /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_rsa_key
Could not load host key: /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_ecdsa_key
Could not load host key: /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_ed25519_key
sshd: no hostkeys available -- exiting.

Can you verify this on Win 11?

So are you sure you are using the right environment? Is there a
separate cygwin installation on the system? Are you using Windows
Subsystem for Linux?
