Organization has enabled Windows passwordless expirience using Intune.

Now, users can not show passwords that are stored in Microsoft Edge, due to Windows Security pop-up dialog with no options. Previously there was option for using password, which is now missing as expected. There should be option for Windows Hello for Business that users are using to login to Windows (via PIN, Fingerprint etc.), right?

Affects all Edge user profiles under Windows profile (Personal, Work, or others).

User can store passwords, and login to sites normally, but issue is when trying to show password (or export), windows security dialog is shown (as expected), but missing authentication options.

Users are using latest Windows 11 Pro 23H2 with all updates and Microsoft Edge for Business v128. But issue is the same also for older versions. Using Microsoft Entra Joined Devices with Intune. Cloud only organization (no hybrid).

    Hi @Hrvoje Kusulja

    It has a password option, but still no Windows Hello on Windows Security pop-up dialog.

    It doesn't have Windows Hello options at first, that's why it still doesn't have after applying Windows passwordless experience.

    I don't find any other way to use Windows passwordless experience in Edge "show stored passwords". I think that's a missing feature about Windows passwordless experience. I suggest that you can provide feedback according to this doc and press Alt+Shift+I in Edge to provide feedback.

    Thanks for your understanding!
