you need to change your password.

secure password fields don't allow right clicking and don't allow pasting.

The best secure password is a randomly generated long password which is unique for every site.  The best way to manage secure passwords is to use a password manager to generate long random passwords for you and store and remember them for you.  The best way to fill your secure password into the password field is to copy and paste the secure password.

I used to have a secure password, but I'm not going to let you force me to spend 5-10 minutes typing it out.

Forcing me to manually type the password has forced me to change my password from something like:

to something more like

Is your "secure" password field really achieving the results you hoped?!? Or is your goal to get everyone to change their password to something less secure?

I totally agree. I use a password manager and my passwords are also long and cryptic. I hate havng to try to fill them in. Most sites my password manager autofills for me but when one doesn't and I have to manually do it it drives me nuts. Where possible my passwords are 16 character long containing upper and lower case, numbers and symbols that are randomly generated by my password manager. I have hundreds of passwords that are all different for each login. Microsoft won't let me autofill or paste either. I hate that.

Copy your password by selecting it with the cursor and hit CTRL+C or right click > Copy .
Next, click into the password field in the "Creative Cloud desktop app" and hit CTRL+V .

That should work.
