I also have a problem with Windows Hello. 1password tries to unlock itself in the background every now and again, saying "making sure it's you" maybe every 15 minutes and after some unlocks, oddly not every time. It fails, probably because it's in the background, but leaves a Windows Hello window open behind all the other apps and the camera stays on.
When I close the failed Hello window, 1password prompts for the password again.
I have "show windows hello prompt automatically" set to Off and "Require password" set to 30 days, but 1password still does these extra checks that always fail. Is there a way to turn them off?
Surface Pro 9, Windows 11 22H2, 1Password installed just now. Windows Hello with the front camera.
