Dont want 1PAssword to auto-lock on my Windows 10 desktop at all.
Only I am using this laptop at home, noone else.
I dont want 1password to ask me to input password everyday or max number of hours it allows.
Somewhere I have set settings to once a month but it asks me for password for every few hours.. Its too long to type in correctly..
Kindly help .

That all looks correct. You should expect to sign in to Windows and unlock 1Password separately, so the two Windows Hello prompts you showed in your screenshots are right. :)

1. windows login screen which asks for hello pin1password login screen (which asks for password/windows hello pin
Selecting windows hello asks for password on this screen
This are my 1PWD settings under security, I hope I am doing everything correct ?Now whenever 1PWD is locked, it makes life easier to only enter Hello Pin and not master password..

Thanks for the assist Tertius,
HNofX82, please let us know how this goes with subsequent sign ins to 1Password for Windows.
Just wanted to confirm, if something goes wrong with PC, and i have master password + secret key, i can login to other devices ?
With the account password and Secret Key, you can login in to other devices. The Windows Hello setup will only apply to this Windows device or other Windows devices where you enabled the option. Should you run in to troubles, 1Password will fall back to the account password.
I recommend following the below link to ensure you have a copy of your Emergency Kit downloaded and saved with your account password written in the space provided, if you haven't already done so:
* Get to know your Emergency KitWith regard to your comment about the two Windows Hello prompts, can you confirm you seeing this twice after trying to unlock 1Password itself? If so, are you continuing two prompts after manually locking 1Password (
Ctrl + Shift + L
) and clicking the Windows Hello button to sign in again?I'm looking forward to your reply.

Thanks Tertius I just tried once and removed the PIN, will try again few times
Just wanted to confirm, if something goes wrong with PC, and i have master password + secret key, i can login to other devices ?Setup Windows hello went smooth, now I have to enter hello pin twice
1. When login to Windows
2. When i open 1PWD, instead of master password, i am asked to enter windows hello (which is quite easy now)I hope this is how this system works ?
Or i can remove the second step to for hello pin authentication to unlock 1password. - TertiusValued Contributor
“Use the Trusted Platform Module with Windows Hello”, but now it requires both master password and windows hello pin.
Both at the same time are required only once for the first time. It's required for Windows to write the account password into the TPM. With future unlocks, you will only have to enter the PIN.In rare cases the TPM content is invalidated and you're asked again for the account password - some Windows updates trigger this, as well as configuration changes in the PC bios.

Thanks Dave,
I can use that feature on laptop (piece of cake)But also required it to setup on PC (without camera or any hardware key),
Tried this:

“Use the Trusted Platform Module with Windows Hello”, but now it requires both master password and windows hello pin.I assume there is no solution to keep 1password unlocked After reboot or shut down the PC as for security product is designed this way..
