Description

Keybase GUI Version: 4.4.1-20190909145404+b5f8897c2a

Only my user name has been accepted. WNB62 all else has been refused.
I do not understand as I tried again and it was denied as User name already in use and my email is not attached to that user name.
I tried to create another account WNB and this time it just kept spinning in an endless loop. I eventually shutdown my computer.
Please advise me if there is an error in my procedure or ????
Thank you
