Hi, I had to reinstall windows so i lost the keys to my server (no password server, only ssh). I tried using the droplet web console but almost any command i send produce a “command not found” error. Any advices?

Commands are case sensitive. So when you type SUDO vs sudo that makes a big difference in the shell world. Just making sure you’re aware of that. Type these two commands and let know what you see from your end:
env
echo $PATH
Feel free to upload the screen shot of the resulting output somewhere and link to it here. It’ll save you time. If you need urgent help with this feel free to reach out at joe@ my user name (add a dot between unixy and net).
How are you able to login without the key? Can you screen shot the “command not found” error so I can see where this is happening?
