@rgl It seems that the install script is failing to repair the permissions for C:\ProgramData\ssh because that folder has a file system right that is not listed in the FileSystemRights Enum. I was able to work around that by manually removing access to the "CREATOR OWNER" Principal from the folder. Can you give that a try and let me know if that works? For now I'll continue to investigate if we can fic the scripts.

[rgl]

I ended up using another workaround, I've deleted the C:\ProgramData\ssh directory before the install. In my case, this is even more appropriate than having any kind of configuration lingering around.

@vthiebaut10 for the record, I fixed it in jenkinsci/docker-ssh-agent#403 with the following commands to remove the CREATOR OWNER unrecognized file system right:

icacls 'C:\ProgramData\ssh' /inheritance:d
icacls 'C:\ProgramData\ssh' /remove 'CREATOR OWNER'
