Creating a database without a key or password makes it imposible to unlock

Describe the bug

When creating a database and not setting any password or key, it successfully creates. Adding passwords works fine, but after locking, it becomes impossible to unlock it again. The "unlock" option remains greyed out unless you toggle one of the unlock methods, such as the password one. However, when leaving the password blank and not filling in any credentials, you receive the error message "Could not read credentials," even though nothing was initially set. I encountered this issue when I had to quickly save a few passwords and accounts without using a text file, only to later find that I couldn't unlock the database again.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. create a database,
  2. do not set any security method
  3. Press ok when it asks "Continue without encryption key"
  4. Lock the database
  5. open the created database
  6. toggle the password option and leave the password blank
  7. Press unlock

Expected behavior

Unlock the database even when no password is used
