Action required: password visibility in Microsoft Edge

We recently told you about an issue Microsoft was experiencing with their Edge browser, leading to some users' passwords being visible on screen when logging into University systems.

Microsoft has now resolved the issue with their software, which means that Microsoft Edge should not show any passwords while logging in.
