ISSUE: Windows Hello & 1pw Shortcut
The past 10 days everything was fine; however, today (or possibly yesterday) an issue has arisen. [80600078, on NIGHTLY channel]
I have Ctrl-Shift-P defined to open the 1pw app. With the 8.6.0 Nightly Channel I could Ctrl-Shift-L to lock the app, hit the X to close the app, then press Ctrl-Shift-P to open the app again at any time .. and it would open with the Windows Hello prompt to scan my fingerprint.
However, either yesterday or today this stopped working. After Ctrl-Shift-L and closing the app, the Ctrl-Shift-P no longer works; I have to manually locate and open the app again. And when I do, I must login again; i.e. it won't let me use Windows Hello.
If I simply hit Ctrl-Shift-L and don't close the app, then everything continues to work fine.
I rebooted my laptop, but that did not correct the issue. I checked for a 1pw update, but it says I'm at the latest version.

Today I see that I'm on 80600079.
Minor good news .. It appears that when I lock and close the app, my Ctrl-Shift-P now opens the app again.
HOWEVER, I still find the Windows Hello prompt often missing. It seems to happen when I close the app, even if I don't logout of the app. It also has something to do with the AutoLock feature (e.g. when my screen locks, or the system is idle too long).
I guess I should turn off the AutoLock feature until this is fixed; i.e. I've already entered my password a couple dozen times today.
