The msys2 environment supplies its own openssh client . This unfortunately is a major issue with using *nix tools on Windows and adding things to the path. For devkitPro tooling we had major issues with windows users not being able to use the tools without the msys2 binaries in the system path and being advised to do inappropriate things to "solve" the issue of not using the msys2 shell. The solution here is to use the msys2 ssh client instead or, if using the Microsoft OpenSSH feature, not to have the msys2 binaries in the system path at all.
The current installer needs replacing, it was written to manage binary distribution before we shifted to using pacman everywhere.
