Enabling Passwordless Sign in for Work Account

Question

Have Windows 10 Pro machines with MS 365 Business Premium.

I currently, have 2 Windows login options:

1. Password
2. Pin

I want to set up passwordless login via Microsoft Authenticator App:

1. I have enabled option in My Security Info Portal for my Azure AD Account.
2. I have enabled Microsoft Authenticator in Authentication Methods in Azure AD.

My expectation was that once I rebooted my machine I would then have a third option to login via my Microsoft Authenticator App, but that is NOT the case.

Can somebody nudge me in the right direction please, as I want to move all User away for logging in with Passwords.

Hi @Richard Berry

It's normal behavior because it is not possible to use the authenticator app to login on windows 10 . Microsoft has not enabled this feature on windows 10/11.
