windows systems dont usualy have an SSH server & root is not a normal
windows user name

on most systems that DO have a ssh server root logins are usually
prohibited, either enable root logins (dangerous) or log in with a user
that has permissions to do what you require. if you don't have access to
the server then you need assistance from someone who is authorised.
