[Solved] I'm dumb, bitcoin core eventually opened the wallet after an hour.  No password/passphrase though.  But, I keep this wallet in an encrypted mount with veracrypt so it is kinda safe.

I should move all the BTC in this wallet to a new wallet though right?  A safer one?  Any suggestions?

This is kind of tricky... If there's even a small chance somebody had access to your unencrypted wallet, moving your funds would be wise... However, it's not like you saved your wallet file on cloud storage, right?
