Hello strif4,

Thanks for your messages and sorry for the delay in response over the holidays.

While adjusting the idle lock timer is certainly an option, (thanks Ekalb) - there are other options to help ease unlocking 1Password 8 for Windows: Use Windows Hello to unlock 1Password on your Windows PC

While using the account password is still required after system restarts, there is an additional option to allow Windows Hello to persist through restarts if you have a hardware backed Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 in your device. Those details can be found here: Windows Hello - Manage your settings

Give this a try and let us know how this works for you. If you have any other questions, we'll be here to help!
