Windows Hello not being used after a restart
Is anyone else experiencing the new feature of Windows Hello to unlock 1Password after a restart of you computer not working? I turned on that option under Advances settings on two different model co...
Hello Jack_P_1P ,
I prefer to stay on the beta channel, so I will wait for the next release there. Once that comes in, I will re-enroll to Windows Hello.
Just as an additional note, the first launch of 1Password after successfully enabling Enhanced Windows Hello will first ask for your account password, then prompt for Windows Hello. Authenticating to Windows Hello there is part of the set up process, and from that point on Enhanced Windows Hello should be available after 1Password is closed, or you restart your device.
About this bit; to me it seems like in this current release, the setup never fully completes. Because after each restart, I first have to put in my account password, and then the prompt for Windows Hello comes.
I will keep an eye on it in future releases and come to the community again if problems arise.
