Hi,

I'm trying to access a users vault by means of the Emergency Access feature. Everything appears to be setup correctly, but when I'm given the opportunity to takeover the Master Password (after 7 days wait period, E-mail from Vaultwarden received it has granted me rights) I can't change the Master Password. It will allow me to enter the new password, but Save seems to not do anything at all. The window does not close and the LOG shows a 200 message
