Description
OS: Windows 10 Pro 22H2
WindTerm: 2.6.0 pre4
I have created a `SSH` connect, details as follows:

this `SSH` works very well sometimes , however, often reports a wired error after a successful connecting:
`SFTP session failed to allocate. sh: /usr/libexec/sftp-server: not found`

I think there may be a issue somewhere.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the SSH connection on Windows 10 Pro 22H2 with WindTerm 2.6.0 pre4, focusing on the intermittent SFTP allocation failure and the reported /usr/libexec/sftp-server path. Compare successful and failed connections to identify what changes; done means SFTP allocates reliably without the “not found” error.
