Steps to reproduce
Click in the system-level top menu: File > Open Vault
Click the Create button to create a new vault
Input a name for new vault in the input box
Click Browse to select a location where your new vault will be created
Select any folder as your location then click Open to set that folder as your location
Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y/N]
Yes
Expected result
The Location element to update the path where the vault will be created and the Open/Create Vault view to stay open so I can press “Create”
Actual result
Clicking “Open” from the native file management modal (when setting the location) closes the Open/Create Vault view entirely. The location IS persisted when I open the view again, so this is a minor bug.

Additional information
If it helps trace the call, when doing this with a Sandbox Vault, both the Open/Create vault view AND the Sandbox Vault close entirely unlike doing it from a regular vault where only the view will close.
