Try changing
<input type="password" name="password">

<input type="password" name="password" autocomplete="on">
Autocomplete lets web developers specify what (if any) permission the user agent has to provide automated assistance in filling out form field values, as well as guidance to the browser as to the type of information expected in the field.
It's pretty powerful.

You have the below options for working with errors of the below format Input elements should have autocomplete attributes thrown by the console by modifying:
<input type="password" name="password">

Set the
autocomplete
attribute tooff
at the<form>
or<input>
which:- Enforces browser to NOT store any data
- Disables caching form data in the session history
<input type="password" name="password" autocomplete="off">
-
Another way to prevent autofilling by the browser is:
