"Suggest Password" Feature

Would be great to be able to generate strong passwords similarly to Chrome's "Suggest Password" feature (right-click on password fields).

hoppy1 Welcome to the MSFT Edge Insider community, and thanks for reaching out. Yes, I have good news for you: we recently launched Password generation! You can read the following, or check out the full announcement (screenshotted below) on our https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/whats-new.

 

"When you're on a website that requires a new password, you can simply select new the password suggested by the browser. Password suggestions are strong, unique, and automatically saved in your profile's saved passwords... If you’re using Microsoft Edge on mobile and syncing your data, then the passwords you generated on your desktop will also be available on your mobile device."

    Hi, it doesn't seem this feature is available in Edge Beta yet. Do you have a timescale when this will make it into beta?
