Hi, I created new site on Windows 10 and the last step failed(“Host file update failed #DK0022”). I tried to recreate site again because this is provided as solution in docs ([DevKinsta Error Codes - Kinsta](https://kinsta.com/knowledgebase/devkinsta/error-codes/#dk0022)) but there is no windows confirmation dialog to approve, so recreating site failed at host update again. How can I fix this?
