Question

If an account has MFA, can we set it so we can sign in with Windows Hello on boot

If an account has either policy based MFA - DUO or has a manual MFA method set, we should be able to use Windows Hello, like we can if we don't shutdown or restart?

Hello @JakeBaalham! 👋

Thank you for reaching out. Can you clarify the question a little bit more? Turning on two-factor authentication for your 1Password account won't prevent you from using Windows Hello to unlock 1Password on your Windows PC. You can learn more about Windows Hello here:

Two-factor authentication is usually only required the first time that you add your 1Password account to a new device. I look forward to hearing from you.
