4 years agoHey @DavidFussell:
Thanks for your feedback here. This is something we're actively working on, and hoped to have out at the end of 2021, but we didn't make that timeline for various reasons. Stay tuned, and hopefully we should have Windows Hello support persisting across reboots in the future on TPM 2.0-enabled devices! :smile:
Just as an additional discussion however, there are very few things that we explicitly say "Highly unlikely to happen" to. Offering the option to save your account password anywhere on disk to allow unlocking to work across reboots, rather than storing key material in a device's secure storage facility (like the TPM 2.0 feature I've mentioned above) is something we're simply not going to add. Additionally, we strongly strongly recommend not writing your account password down anywhere. Choosing an account password based on words generated using the 1Password password generator would be your best bet at a secure password that is not difficult to type or remember.
