Windows Hello 1Password
Hi,
I am getting a new laptop (Dell XPS 13 or Lenovo Yoga 910), and I was wondering the following: Is there an option to ONLY use Windows Hello to sign in, instead of the master password? After the initial setup, I don't want to use the password to log in. Is there an option to keep this available after restart, shutdown of program etc?
Thank you in advance.

@yesitisi: No. The Master Password isn't used for authentication; rather, your data is encrypted with it. So you will always need to know your Master Password to be able to unlock your data, even if you use another method to unlock 1Password more quickly sometimes for convenience. And please note that 1Password 6 does not yet support Windows Hello. It's something we hope to add in the future though. I hope this helps. Be sure to let me know if you have any other questions! :)

Hi, I just downloaded the 1Password 6 beta and tryout the 1Password unlock feature. But I cannot find the option stated in https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/53463/new-feature-in-beta-2-pin-fingerprint-iris-or-face-recognition-support-to-unlock-app about using Windows Hello. I have attached a screenshot of options. Is there anything I can do to enable Windows Hello support?
Cheers

@billgong: The post you linked to (from January) is for an old Windows Store beta which is no longer available. As I mentioned in my previous post last week (which you replied to), 1Password 6 does not yet support Windows Hello.
