Had this same problem under Windows 10.
Started x2goclient.debug --debug and it showed me that the permissions for the ssh_host_rsa_key are too open (0770).
Installed cygwin to check these permissions under windows and the user- and groupname where the same username. The rights where 700. Somehow the rights for the group where inherited from the user when they have the same owner/group-name.
Fixed it by changing the group for ssh_host_rsa_key from the username to 'Users' under cygwin.

Thanks so much for this workaround!
I can confirm that I am experiencing the exact same issue on all the Windows 10 installations at work, and that the workaround is working.

Yes, that's very unfortunate. As far as I could find out, that's a known bug (or feature, or whatever) in Cygwin.
Sadly, I have no idea how to fix that without telling users to install chmod, cygwin bash and fixing permissions manually. That's certainly not the best way to deal with that wide-spread issue.
