Action Required: Password Visibility in Microsoft Edge

Microsoft has resolved an issue with their Edge browser that caused some users' passwords to be visible on screen when logging into University systems.

Usually, password details are starred out as you type to avoid potential security issues. However, passwords may still be visible in your settings.

To ensure system security, we ask all staff and students to check their Microsoft Edge settings to ensure passwords are not showing in their 'Personal info' settings.

Microsoft Edge should not show any passwords while logging in.

Check your settings to protect your passwords.

Author's summary: Check Microsoft Edge settings for password visibility.
