Who still isn't using a password manager?
The most infuriating part is when this happens while using a password from a password manager
The fact this happens is infuriating. 😣
Then you finally do the password change, go to login and now the new password doesn't work because you copied it to clipboard and overwrote it somehow in that small time frame goddamn shit! I always win+r and put it there until I know everything is all good.
Maybe use the clipboard history on Windows? (Win+V)
Coming from a Linux background and being forced to use windows 10/11 at work, this was a game changer for me when i accidentally mis-keyed this shortcut and turned on the history feature. Now I use it literally dozens or hundreds of times each day.
