1Password TeamHi @Fotis,
Thank you for reaching out.
With Windows Hello enabled, it's expected that you'll still need to enter your account password at certain times - such as after rebooting your computer or restarting the application.
To unlock with Windows Hello without entering your password after you quit 1Password or restart your PC, you can use the Trusted Platform Module with Windows Hello:
In 1Password for Windows (desktop app):
- Go to Settings > Advanced.
- Select "Use the Trusted Platform Module with Windows Hello", then click Turn On.
To use the Trusted Platform Module with Windows Hello, you may need to turn on TPM 2.0. If you still can't use the Trusted Platform Module with Windows Hello after turning on TPM 2.0, let us know and we can investigate further.
Let me know if this helps.
