Keystore password was incorrect #8

I have tried many times and many ways to set the keystore properly. For info I am on Windows.
I don't use a custom keystore just the way you show it. I run the command in powershell and type the password Infinity but it only seems to ask:
Enter keystore password:
Re-enter new password:
it generates, I use the base64 command and get a RSA certificate txt file (using cmd including BEGIN and END certificate. I put only the text inbetween begin and end certificate in that secret. but also tried powershell which directly gives only the base64 string which I used after knowing that)
I use that to set the keystore 64 secret.

Afterwards I try to build and everything goes fine until after apk build and says Keystore password was incorrect (Execution failed for task ':app:packageRelease'.

A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.tasks.PackageAndroidArtifact$IncrementalSplitterRunnable
com.android.ide.common.signing.KeytoolException: Failed to read key from store "/home/runner/work/infinity_for_reddit_builder_gitstudying/infinity_for_reddit_builder_gitstudying/app/keystore.jks": Keystore was tampered with, or password was incorrect).

I literally tried using keytool to list it and say pass= Infinity, and shows the keystore. If I put in anything else even infinity it will say wrong password when checking.
So I know the password is Infinity and in your own documentation it says this is the default so I don't set it. What could still go wrong. I am done waiting minutes on the action to just tell me the keystore is wrong.

Also I think it would help if the command includes -storepass Infinity by default as that would take away any guessing if you are blindly typing.

FYI
Manually tried

# Decode the keystore
  echo "${{ secrets.KEYSTORE_BASE64 }}" | base64 --decode > keystore.jks

  # Try to list the keystore contents to validate the passwords
  if ! keytool -list -v \
    -keystore keystore.jks \
    -storepass "${{ steps.set_secrets.outputs.storepass }}" \
    -keypass "${{ steps.set_secrets.outputs.keypass }}" \
    -alias "${{ steps.set_secrets.outputs.keyalias }}" > /dev/null 2>&1; then
    echo "Error: Invalid keystore password, key password, or alias"
    echo "Please check your keystore credentials and try again"
    exit 1
  fi

The decode works perfectly and the list also shows all the certificate info
