unable to set up new windows 11 pc due to 2FA/MFA problem

Hi, I'm trying to set up 1pw on Samsung Galaxy Book Pro 360 Win11. Prompted for 2FA/MFA. Can't fulfill either method (codes or hardware key; new pc/win11/1pw doesn't recognize hardware key even though I see the dots indicating that the key is providing and pc/win11/1pw is receiving). I get locked into infinite loop prompting entry of hardware key. I think exact message is something like hardware key not recognized.

1Password Version: latest
Extension Version: latest
OS Version: win 11

    Hello @radincal, sorry to hear about this 2FA issue you've encountered. This sounds like it may need a system-specific solution. For that reason, could you send us a brief email at support@1Password.com? That way, we can provide customized advice and investigate this for you personally in a way we couldn't in an open forum.

    Thanks, and we'll hope to see you over there!

    Actually, requester is Windows Security (1password.com). Message is "Can't read your security key. Please try again."

    Do not see anywhere in old pc 1password to specify/reset 2FA/MFA including security key.
