Hi @Kevin, I tried logging out of DevKinsta, exiting the app, deleted the .ssh directory, opened DevKinsta with admin privileges, and logged back in… and no dice ☹

The .ssh directory was re-created, but `stat id_rsa` is still showing my UID, not root.

I tried importing a site again anyways and still the same error.

FYI, I’m running Docker Desktop with the Hyper-V backend (vs WSL 2) as [discussed here](https://community.kinsta.com/t/website-interactivity-is-slow/293) if that matters.
