Hey Maldroid, thanks for clarifying.

We would strongly recommend against reusing your 1Password account password for any other system or service. That would include your Microsoft/Windows account.

That said, having the same password here wouldn't make unlocking 1Password with Windows Hello more or less secure.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
