Support for password manager

The lack of password manager support for your Windows product is just wrong.  Having to manually type in user-id and password means that I can not use complex random passwords.  I have to use simple, short and easy to remember passwords.... counter to best practices.   You don't even support copy/paste.   Your product is alone when it comes to password manager support.   When will you join the 2010s and support more security for an application that holds information that needs high levels of security from a personal perspective.  Your lack of support means the user has to simplify and go in the opposite direction of best practices.

I will report your concern and suggestion to those in charge of this board.

 

However, note that you should only need to sign in when you initially install the product.

Thanks.

 

But, your response of only happening when signing in to install the product is not true.  When filling taxes the same thing happens with the pop-up window for user id and password.  It's a pain.

One last comment.   It is clear that this won't be a priority.  I expect to see no change to support a password manager within the product.  I have just under 200 unique user ID/Password combos for all of the online and local services I use.  All of the passwords are long generated passwords.   For ONE and ONLY ONE online service do I have to manually create using different rules so that I can type it in.... Intuit.   Security influences my decision making when using online services or for that matter Windows applications.   If it is inferior, I will choose to go elsewhere.   Every single topic on best practices for security includes the use of a password manager as one of the best practices.   At least I can log on to Intuit with the password manager but once you get inside the product, forget it.... it does not work.
