Moved here from Termix-SSH/Termix, since every Termix repo handles its own issues. The issue describes a connection failure within the File Manager plugin when an SSH host key changes, which is specific to the plugin's SFTP/SSH handling logic. If this was moved by mistake, reply and a maintainer will sort it out.

Auto-triage
The File Manager plugin enters an infinite retry loop when connecting to a host whose SSH key has changed, instead of prompting the user to accept the new key or failing gracefully.
A maintainer will take a look. If anything above looks wrong, just say so.
