Stuck on Onboarding page

I am getting the following error
“Failed to save: extra keys not allowed @ data[‘currency’]. Got ‘EUR’”

I found this in forums and it was not helpful.

I have a confirguation.yaml file that includes only this:

# Configure a default setup of Home Assistant (frontend, api, etc)
default_config:

# Text to speech
tts:
  - platform: google_translate

group: !include groups.yaml
automation: !include automations.yaml
script: !include scripts.yaml
scene: !include scenes.yaml

And in my .storage folder there is no “onboarding” file which was mentioned in the linked post.

Try adding this to your configuration.yaml

homeassistant:
  currency: EUR

to see if it gets you by onboarding.

Tried that and the front end wouldnt open. Logs informed me EUR was an invalid currency. So I tried putting EUR in quotes in the configuration file and then the front end did open but no change from before.
