I couldn't believe it would be this inconvenient.
Ended up adding my credentials into the retroarch.cfg 's "cheevos" section.

I tried that, too, but after you log in the password is erased from the config file and replaced with a login token, which expires after a couple of weeks of non-use, requiring re-entry of the password.
This is incredibly flawed design and should be fixed, I am not typing a 40 character password manually
Description
I'm a low-frequency player of retro/emulated games. The RetroAchievements login token expires relatively quickly. My guess is that a token lasts about 2 weeks, but maybe up to 4 weeks. This means that almost every time I use RetroArch I need to enter my password to refresh my login token for RetroAchievements. For some reason this field can't be pasted into. I have a long and strong password created by a password manager. This makes it extremely inconvenient to meticulously transcribe, character by character, my long password full of random letters, numbers, and symbols. To make matters worse, I almost exclusively play RetroArch on the Steam Deck, which lacks a real, full-size keyboard. Booting the Steam Deck into Desktop Mode so I can access my password manager and have it display my password in its entirety on one part of the screen for a few minutes while I run RetroArch in a window on another part of the screen and then s-l-o-o-o-o-o-w-l-y entering each character using the on-screen keyboard is just agonizing.
Expected behavior
I expect when I encounter a password field that I can copy my password from my password manager and paste it into the password field text entry.
Actual behavior
Nothing happens when I try to paste. It seems pasting is disabled.
