What is failing
After added more user then 29 to sshd_config, server after few minutes stop accepting connection. Only 28 user can be configured.
I've test on Windows 2016 and Windows 2019 using version 7.7 and 8.1.
On log file nothing special.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the connection failure with more than 29 Match User entries in sshd_config on the reported Windows Server versions, then inspect the server logs around the failure. Done means identifying and fixing the limit or failure so the server continues accepting connections with more than 29 configured users, with regression coverage for that threshold.
