For those of us who still prefer IE11 my workaround is to remember the password → go to Internet Options, Content, Autocomplete settings. Make sure 'Ask me before saving passwords' is checked. You can always uncheck it later to avoid the annoying pop-up on other sites that require passwords. The next time you sign in, it will prompt to remember your user id and password. If you are concerned about security issues, don't type in your real password. I left out the first two characters of my password. So now whenever I go to the sign-in page, my user id and fake password are already pre-filled. All I have to do is type in the first two characters of my password and hit Enter. This is actually less effort than when I had to type in the first letter of my user id, select the dropdown autocomplete and then type in my entire password! This workaround should probably be adaptable to Firefox too.

Cynicidal Couchpotato,

I received a similar email. I agree with you ... it's total BS.

Auto-complete in the Microsoft sign on page was a useful feature ... many people used it. Some Microsoft manager made a decision to remove the feature .... and does not even have the courtesy, professionalism, or courage to provide customers with the reason for that decision.

Others (Netflix, gmail, Facebook to name a few) support auto-complete in their sign on page, yet all Microsoft can do is show their disrespect for customers by refusing to even explain why the feature was removed.

As I explained in my previous posts in this thread .... there is a simple work-around ... use Firefox, install the free add-on that runs scripts (Greasemonkey), and use the script I posted ... the script will enable autocomplete in the Microsoft sign on page.

Wonderful I just received the following from a Microsoft escalation analyst:

Hi ,

This is Stephane again with Global Escalation Support. I hope your day is going well.

I am sending you this email to inform you that I received a response from the development team with information that unfortunately we cannot disclose details about the decision at this point there are no plans to re-enable auto complete. I know that you have been waiting for sometimes however note that the auto-complete will not be re-enable at this point. I am sorry for the inconvenient.

I have decided to provide you with three months of Microsoft Groove subscription for the great patience and understanding so that you can continue to enjoy the service.

I really thank you again for the patience and understanding.

Have a wonderful weekend!

What TOTAL bs.. :(

Why would they delete it? You didn't mention the CEO's name. By the way, my workaround on IE11 is to set it on auto login. So it remembers the password too. Except I omitted the 1st two characters of my password, so I type it in, that way there is still some security.
