Error: unrecognized signer source

I'm trying to create a new steel project using the 

```rust
steel new <project_name>
```
but I'm getting this error
```shell
Error: unrecognized signer source

Caused by:
    failed to parse signer URI C:\Users\OFUZOR IFEANYICHUKWU\.config\solana\id.json
```
I have ran this command multiple times but all to no avail
```rust
solana-keygen new 
```
