Windows 10: How to copy/paste password to login into MSA?

Windows does not let me. I guess it is a stupid security feature preventing malware from harvesting password, forcing people to use weak password, like paypal did in the past? So shall I use a dumb password or can I use a strong one and copy/paste it?

:)

 

Is it possible to copy/paste password when logging into MSA?

I am wondering, whether is it possible to copy/paste the password in here?





I have decided to use MSA and I like it, so I have changed password to be more complex and I was about to login again to confirm it and I have found out, that I can not copy/paste it. I wonder, if I changed some settings or it can not be done? Paypal did not allow it in the past, so maybe MS still uses the same policy?

EDIT: Nevermind, I installed Bitwarden and I was able to copy/paste it from there.

 

Password issue

After going through the steps to make a new password, after a week or two, my login credentials are no longer valid. I'm forced to make a new password all over again. It seems to happen if I don't login in a certain period of time. Does our passwords expire???
