[40] Troubles with biometric unlock (Windows)

While I am not currently able to answer whether or not Windows Hello with PIN works with Biometric Unlock, so I've reached out to my colleagues to get an answer on that.
For the time being, I wanted to let you know that when biometric unlock is enabled, the op signin command no longer needs to be wrapped in Invoke-Expression, that's because system wide authentication works differently than CLI standalone authentication.
Alternatively, you can try executing any command (many people tend to use op user list for some reason..) to invoke the biometric unlock process instead of explicitly running the op signin command as well.
Hope this helps for now, and we'll get back to you regarding the first part of your question.
Edit: Just heard back from a colleague within minutes, so I'll edit my post instead of making a new one.
Looks like Windows Hello PIN should work for unlocking the CLI, in fact we have some developers who use the Hello PIN in-house.
So for now, do you mind leaving out the Invoke-Expression a try and get back to us here if the issue persists?
