Autofill disabled on new Microsoft login page. ANNOYING!!!

It appears there is now a new login page for Outlook Live Online which is the main login for all Microsoft accounts. It also appears this new page is blocking the autofill feature on Chrome for the user name. I have been meaning to switch to another email client for some time now and this is definitely the last straw which has put me over the edge.  Anyone know anything about this?

    Schmactor,

    Does your script to enable autocomplete on the MS Sign-on page still work for you?

    I wrote a similar script (for Greasemonkey on Firefox), and my script now does not work unless I put an Alert command at the end (script runs, no errors, but autocomplete remains off ... unless I put an Alert command at the end of the script).

    Most likely, I am encountering a race condition between my script and the sign-in page being loaded ... but I cannot discover what the race condition is and how to mitigate it.

    Problem just started happening (my script worked fine since last May).

    I was just wondering if you were having any problems with your script on Tampermonkey/Chrome?

    I've found sometimes I just need to refresh the page for it to work.

    I have been using Schmactor's script successfully until a week ago. now it will work once and then not again. If I delete my chrome history and cookies, it will work once only.

    It's been almost two years since Microsoft created this problem.  They are not listening to us . So you are going to have to deal with  this yourself. I've been looking t the code and I've found the line that turn off autofull. I just do not know how to change it. Good luck.
