Ever since I got a new computer when I try and log in with 1password after I restart, 70% of the time it says windows hello was reset when I didn't do anything to it. Any idea why this is happening?

    I have been getting the same "Password required after Windows Hello Reset" prompt on my Windows 11 machine and 1PW 8. I'm not quite sure why, might have something do to with Hibernate / Fast Boot. Probably something Microsoft has to fix though.

    I'm experiencing same thing here. I also have Bitwarden, never had to re-enter my master password as long as biometric wasn't reset or modified. 1Password is the only software in my system requires me to re-enter my password more often than any other service I've ever used. If any of my devices exposed to a keylogger, 1Password will be the first one to be comprised. lol
