🐛 Bug: Issue with password and * character

Open yanoocom opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

What happened?

Copy your password containing * characters (for example Zoubida***11) Then start the application, paste your password in the field. Then don't submit, but clik on the little eye right to the password field: the * chars are not present. Password is now Zoubida11. If you paste again the password, then it's correct. Quit & restart 2FAGuard.exe to reproduce.

A little more annoying is that at password creation I used * chars, but they also were filtered.

Spent a lot of time trying to find out why my password only worked one out of two times... :)
