Walletwasabi: Unable to enter password to withdraw or coinjoin funds.

General Description

A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

I have a long password. It has worked for me for over a month. I recently upgraded to the newest version of Wasabi and I am no longer able to successfully enter my password.

I can copy/paste the password, but it is too long, and the characters look Chinese. I get an invalid password error.

When I manually type the password, the password is too long. My computer indicates that I have reached the character limit with an audible sound. I continue to get the invalid password error.

I have attempted to enter the password when withdrawing funds, and also coinjoining funds. The password does not work in both areas.

About how long? We added a 50 character sanity limit. We can increase it.

Thank you for your quick reply. The password is 83 characters.

This fixes it: https://github.com/zkSNACKs/WalletWasabi/commit/6557d151e0353708c30497c4ce4a58a8a31cc7ac

Sorry for the inconvenience. In order to access your funds you must build it from source code and use it from there until next release: https://github.com/zkSNACKs/WalletWasabi#build-from-source-code

It's not hard, but if you got stuck ping us in this issue.

Thank you brother.

I followed the link in the instructions and it works perfectly now. Your instructions are on point. I know nothing about compiling from source and yet I was able to pull it off.

I have a lot of gratitude for you and all you do.
