Can log into main account but master password doesn't work

more options

I'm trying to remove my master password but when I go to settings to remove it and enter the password (the one that works for my main account), the "OK" button is ghosted out and I can't click it.

In short, the password that gets me into the account that allows me to post on this site isn't the "master password" and I can't recover the "master password".

Thanks for the help!

The Master Password/Primary Password is purely local to each installation of Firefox. It is separate from your Firefox Account login and does not Sync to your other installations of Firefox.
