Sorry, I meant 1Password asked for Windows Hello authentication sometimes after unlocking the Surface Pro, but not every time. Yes, my autolock was set at 10 minutes when I used Windows Hello. Preferably 1Password would only ask to unlock when I'm using it, would reliably use Windows Hello between reboots and ask for the password after a reboot.
I've now turned off the Windows Hello unlock in 1Password, it does not seem to work right, so it's more of a hindrance than a help. It's a shame because biometric unlock worked beautifully in 1Password 7 on the iPad. I also miss the option to set autolock to "immediately", but that would not work without Windows Hello support.
