2 years agoHello again HNofX82,
Thanks for getting back to us with these details about your auto start and shutdown of your device.
This device shutdown is causing 1Password for Windows to lock. When the device shuts down, the 1Password process is then exited and Windows Hello or your account password will then be required after that next start up and the app is relaunched. This is intended behaviour when the 1Password app is completely exited.
Rather than using an auto shutdown, have you considered putting your device to sleep on a similar schedule? This, with an adjustment to the auto-lock settings, would allow the 1Password app process to continue running in the background and only lock based your current settings:

Then Windows Hello or your account password would only be required when you restart or boot your device.
I hope these additional details help! Please let us know if you have any further questions.
