Note that there is nothing Keyboard Maestro can do to “work around” Secure Input Mode - it is a system security feature that has been erroneously left on. If Keyboard Maestro reports the loginwindow as the process, that just means that it is likely a Startup Agent or Daemon asking for the password that is causing the problem, but unfortunately Keyboard Maestro was unable to determine which process in particular has the Secure Input Mode enabled. Note that if a background process enables Secure Input Mode then the system may incorrectly attribute the cause to the current foreground process, which will mislead Keyboard Maestro and then you as to which application is responsible (thanks to Smile Software for reporting this!).

There are many possible culprits for this but almost anything that asks for a password could cause the problem (eg, web password fields, web password managers, VPN connections, Mail, Parallels, etc). However, the system can sometimes get into a state where it thinks it is permanently in a password fields. MacOS will not let applications watch the keyboard when you are in a password field (to prevent hackers getting hold of your passwords).
