Bug #15751

Declining to reset the admin account via the console menu still prompts to change the password
Added by Chris W about 2 months ago.
Updated about 1 month ago.
Plus Target Version:
24.11
Description
When it asks Proceed? and you press n, it proceeds anyway.
I see this on the Sept 28 dev build and 24.03, but not 23.09.1 or 2.7.2. On the latter two versions, n returns you to Enter an option: like you'd expect.
