Dumb UX mistakes in IIS

by in General, UX

This is just a quick rant/question. Does anyone know why you have to type your password twice when setting up the Application Pool Identity in IIS?

It seems an extremely dumb feature as #1 you can copy paste the password or #2 just type it but given you usually include service accounts here with stupidly complicated passwords then why do you have to suffer typing it twice?

Windows “evolves” but the underlying things are exactly the same. Can’t Microsoft spare a little bit of time making Windows more usable and fix little itty bitty things like this one that overall will have a better user experience?

Oh well, who cares about devs anyway!
