Password Generator is finally working!
Hey team, The Password Generator test has been extended to more websites now! In Canary build 89.0.726.0, I was able to get the Password Generator working on a lot of websites now, though not all. ...

HotCakeX I meant, the HTML websites that my son coded, it won't work on that. But I wish it would.

I'm not sure how what you are saying is related to my reply. but like I said Edge secure password generator doesn't work on all input fields that have type password, and that's the problem.

- HotCakeXMar 12, 2021MVPWhat I said 3 months ago about an older version of Edge is no longer true right now.
both of the problems you are describing is Solved in insider channels and will soon roll out to the stable channel.
clicking/tapping on the password field shows you the hidden password to copy it
https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/new-improvement-on-strong-password-suggestion-feature-in-edge/m-p/2117555 - cisvHenriksenMar 12, 2021Copper ContributorStill experiencing this issue as of 12-03-2021, had to look though forums to find a valid site, just to see if it actually worked at all. I found trying on Facebook/Amazon failed, but Zoom.us worked. again, it only added a Password to first input field, and not giving a Copy/Paste option to add to the second confirm password field. How is this implementation still this broken ?
- HotCakeXDec 08, 2020MVPYup, and Edge developers should be aware of this since it's obvious and has problem on popular websites, so don't think if i send them 1000 feedbacks about 1000 websites that this thing doesn't work on, will be any helpful. even then, there will be millions other websites that still are left out.
