How can I disable windows security "making sure its you" popping up every time I try to log into a site?

Question

Whenever I try to log into a site from Chrome or Edge, Windows Security pops up with a "Making sure it's me" security pop-up asking me to sign in. It is F*****ng me, it's my computer, it's on my private network, I already signed in initially when I turned my laptop on using my face, my fingerprint, my passcode, a drop of blood, it's me!! Why is it asking me this whenever I log into any site? How can I disable this? If I am on a public network, there may be some concern, but I'm home. I do not need Windows to be this worried about me. HOW can this be disabled??

Answer 1

Hi Jimmy,

To prevent those unexpected "Making sure it’s you" security popups in Edge and Chrome, you can try to follow these steps:

1. Disable Password Prompts in Your Browser

For Microsoft Edge:

Open Edge and paste this in the address bar: edge://settings/passwords

Turn OFF these options:

• Offer to save passwords
• Sign in automatically

For Google Chrome:

Open Chrome and paste this in the address bar: chrome://settings/passwords

Disable the same options as above.

2. If it still persist, you can try the additional steps below:

• Windows Security Settings:

Open Windows Security → Sign-in options

Disable:

"Allow Windows to use my sign-in info..."

"Require Windows Hello sign-in for Microsoft accounts"

• Credential Manager:

Press Win + R, type netplwiz, and uncheck:

"Users must enter a username and password..."

This should stop the interruptions while keeping your browsing secure. Let me know if you still see the popups!
