Thanks for the info- I thought the unpopulated list was a bug because the procedure you describe is not that self evident. I have never seen an unpopulated dropdown list that fills in after you type something into it.
Someone else classified this as medium priority, but it has a lot of people confused and in danger of being locked out of their systems. Now every time I do an update, I make sure there is no .failsafe file reintroduced before I shut down and my system runs fine.
