Hello,
Every time I need to access an app via Okta or via Edge or Chrome, I would like that Windows Security-Hello ask me for the last log-in choice or by default by the Face choice.
Instead, Windows always asks me for the Fingerprint and it is really annoying having always to select More choices > Face every few minutes that I access an app.
Is this a bug? is there any workaround to make Windows offer always the last choice or set it always by the desired choice (Face)?
Is there something that can be done at the OS level to fix this?
I already tried the registry workaround and it does not work (https://www.technine.be/2020/05/16/how-to-set-default-sign-in-option-in-windows-10/)"www.technine.be")
