Enabling hardware encryption on the PERC H745 - copy/paste key - how?

Screenshot 2020-09-14 at 11.35.08.png

 

As you can see from the picture I'm required to retype the key, also I need to record this key for security. This is perfectly acceptable, however as I'm supposed to retype the key twice there is a lot of room for error. Now this is something that simply can't be wrong. Therefore I should copy paste between the 2 fields and also to my own laptop for security and archiving. Using the VM (HTML, Java, ActiveX) I've tried them all, how am I supposed to copy between the fields? 

Copy paste function doesn't work, I have a really hard time believing that nobody has tested this, I found the problem within 2 minutes. 

Please advise how I'm supposed to solve this.

Thank you.

    Hello Paul_McGuire,

     

    I tested on an H745 and found the same as you did that the passphrase will not copy/paste to Confirm field.
    This appears to be functioning as designed.
