Hello @0cdefc2b5d38442c869ebec6f34d31

If the recovery console is still not responsive you can power off and then power on the droplet.

However, if the the issue remains you can reach out to our support team and then will be more than happy to assist you.

Hi there,

In this case I could suggest following the steps from this guide here on how to recover access to your Droplet using the recovery console:

Let me know how it goes!

Best,

Bobby
