How about face recognition to log in other applications, our apps or other sites?

I love my windows hello. It’s super fast, so I literally can just open the device and I am greeted with a smiley face that says “Welcome back Luke”. I love that it also works just as well in the middle of the night when I am half asleep.

But, I wish that they added an extra layer of security when auto filling passwords in websites. Like if I wanted to sign into a website, when I click the username and password it prompts me to use windows hello, kinda like when you are autofilling a password on iPhone.

Is it possible to have more than one user to one account and to not have to click the picture.

I hate that im being forced to use any form of this when trying to play a game on my computer…

i just want a feature similar to my iPhone are Mac where i can sign in and pay using the finger print scanner. <3

The shitty part of this feature is once you use an organizational account, you can't use personal account anymore.
The nature of my work changes between organisation and project. I have to keep common notes in OneNote which resides in my personal account. Now is not accessible at all.

I updated my software and now have windows hello. I tried to setup the facial recognition, but it states the option is not available and it couldn't find a camera compatible with windows hello face. How do I resolve this situation?

Nice video but man you guys missed lots of info.
Can it be used on a desktop pc with webcam?
What happens if webcam breaks can you still log in using pin?
Can logging in be set to need both face and pin or password at same time?

How do I fix the renew pin/password issue on the sign in screen? I have a Surface Laptop 5. I've been trying to sign in for the past few days, tried every pin I knew that would come to my mind but it just wouldn't work. It kept on saying that the password was wrong. I tried the shift+restart thing but it wouldn't do anything. I also tried the volume up+power button but it just led me to the Surface UEFI screen.

What about non-surface users ? How are we supposed to get windows hello to work on our computers ?

[mohammadjawzi]

is it available for all windows 10 users ?

Hello, I am searching a way to open the Surface Go with fingerprint reader. Anything for the Surface go (1 or 2) ? All I have seen is usb (not C...) devices or one bluetooth one but not sure it works with the surface go.

Hi, I just recently bought a Microsoft surface 4 laptop. When I was going to set my my windows hello, it says "this option is unavailable". I've done everything but I still can't access face sign in. I've watched a lot of YouTube videos telling me what to do but it's not working.

[tuzzu]

[mufgcft]

How do you protect the facial data of the user?

[Sistrology_queens]

I like Windows hello. But fingerprint is not Working after restart. It works only after Lock and re-signing in. Please reply me if it is possible to Fix.

[kimchee]

I use fingerprint, works for couple of months then it stopped. Next bootup, Windows force me to go thru the steps like a new install. After all the new install it recognize my fingerprint, WTF! Do I need to reinstall Windows every time it fails to recognize my fingerprint?

[thetechbin]

maybee they should set it that it will not unlock with my eyes closed
