Sync password is not accepted

[rednag]

I wanted to add a new browser to my sync chain, because some sites are not working with brave nightly so I've installed brave release version and copied the sync password from my nightly browser to my release browser and it does not accept the sync password.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Copy sync password from nightly browser
2. Paste sync password to release browser
3. Password not accepted

Actual result:

Expected result:

Adding a new browser to my sync chain!

Try upgrading to the latest version of Brave release (version 1.41). We recently made changes to the Sync codes and now they have 25 words instead of 24.

I think what's happening is that your Brave release is generating 24 words but your Brave Nightly is expecting 25 words.

I have the latest version on both devices

Brave is up to date
[Version 1.48.158 Chromium: 110.0.5481.77 (Official Build) (64-bit)](https://brave.com/latest/)

I can see my synced device in sync settings, only bookmarks are synced
I have selected "sync everything" but can't see my passwords or history
The password code generated was 25 words

@IsslamEl Would you mind filing a separate GitHub issue for this? The problem you describe is different from the one of Sync codes not being accepted.
