So I am running from the Mintty window commands. I will try the ssh -vvv and looking into the log soon. I have developed another issue that I think is linked to me trying to set up the ssh server. I seem to have created more users on my windows computer, but not in the windows user account area only when it comes to the properties of folders and files. I don't seem to be able to open a folder that was created when I ran rsync. No matter what elevation I try in windows I cannot gain access to the folder called download. I cannot change the permissions for the folder either (see the picture link)
How can I go about accessing this folder?
