Can't Accept and Save New Host Key
Sorry if this has been posted before, but I couldn't find the answer in another thread. Anyone know why it wont allow me to Accept and Save? I am using windows 10 and Version 8.0.4 of SecureCRT.

Hi Outlaw99775
When you accept and save a host key, it gets stored in the "KnownHosts" folder, which can be found within your Config folder with a default installation. If you aren't able to accept and save a host key, the first thing I would do is to make sure that the Config folder or the KnownHosts folder is not Read Only. Are you able to manually save a file in your KnownHosts folder? Thanks JJH

JJH,
The folder is Read-Only, but the files in it are not. That's the way our company sets up our computers, I am hoping that's not the only issue as my co-workers don't have the same issue. files:

I think the issue is that you ended up with multiple entries for the same host in your host key database. I would like to see what your HostKeyDB.txt file looks like.
Would you be able to send me a copy of your HostKeyDB.txt file to support@vandyke.com? Please make a reference to this forum thread in your message. After you provide that file, try removing all entries related to the host that you are connecting to. Does removing those entries allow you to accept and save the host key? Thanks JJH
