Comment (by michelangelovandam):

 Hi all,



 I ran into this issue since WordPress 5.7 where I replaced the generated
 password with one I provided myself:

 1. A random 50 character password generated by a password manager
 2. By a weak password, something like "Pass123%"

 What happens is that in my second case, the weak password requires
 additional confirmation only after I pressed submit. In the first case the
 warning for confirming the password only appears after pressing submit.

 I created a short video for the second case because this a common issue
 when testing in a local environment. See WordPress Missing Password
 Confirmation video on YouTube at https://youtu.be/YarAvxOFjWg. In the
 video I was using WordPress 5.7.2.

 I was able to circumvent the issue by removing the "display: none" class
 on the password confirmation field.
