Powershell: Cannot paste complete password when creating a new credential

[mmcelreath]

When running Get-Credential, if I try to paste my password when prompted for a password, it only takes the first character or so then exits the command. The rest of the password is then pasted to the console.

Steps to reproduce

PS C:> "TestPassword123" | clip.exe
PS C:> $cred = Get-Credential

PowerShell credential request
Enter your credentials.
User: Test
Password for user Test: *
PS C:> stPassword123

Expected behavior

When pasting the password into the password prompt, the entire password should be accepted to properly create the credential object

Actual behavior

As single character is pasted to the password field then the command closes and the remainder of the password gets pasted to the console.

Seems we already have such report.

I tried searching for it but wasn't able to find one. Do you have the issue #?

[iSazonov]

I can not find too.

Came to see if someone opened an issue for this, saw that @mmcelreath already did! I am seeing this as well. Environment information below.

@iSazonov / @vexx32 I don't think this is any issue anymore since I'm not able reproduce this on 7.1 rc1. Can this issue be closed?

C:\> "TestPassword123" | clip.exe
C:\> $cred = Get-Credential

PowerShell credential request
Enter your credentials.
User: test
Password for user test: ***************

C:\> $cred.GetNetworkCredential().Password
TestPassword123

[vexx32]

Tested and confirmed this works as expected for me as well.
