Nail1684 · November 12, 2025, 3:06pm

2025.11.0

(The listed release number is for the Bitwarden Server, other version numbers released in this cycle also include Web 2025.11.0, Browser Extension 2025.11.0, Mobile 2025.11.0, Desktop 2025.11.0, and CLI 2025.11.0)

Password Manager

Log in with passkey support on browser extensions: Users can now log in to browser extensions with a passkey. Currently, Chrome and Chromium-based browsers like Edge are supported.
Windows Hello update: You can now unlock your vault with biometrics immediately after the Windows desktop app restarts, rather than entering a master password or PIN. When setting up biometrics in the Windows desktop app, uncheck Require master password or PIN on app restart.
Right-click in web app: In the web app Vaults view, you can now right-click to call up the same menu you’d access using the options menu.
Improved sign-up flow for premium subscription: Users seeking the benefits of a paid Bitwarden plan will find it easier to upgrade their account. Select the Upgrade your plan button within the web app navigation to learn more about and select a paid plan.

Admin Console

Default URI match detection for organizations: Organization owners and admins can now choose the default URI match detection method for their members. Members can still edit the URI match detection method for individual login items.

Self-host

Note

Helm Charts Versioning Update: For Bitwarden self-host Helm charts, the CalVer versioning scheme (2025.8.0) will be deprecated on November 13, 2025. Moving forward, only SemVer versions will be supported and released.

Backup script update: Docker deployments utilizing the packaged backup-db.sh script have been updated to the Simple recovery model to prevent transaction log file sizes from compounding.
Web clients require https configuration: Self-hosted server connections will now require https:// configuration. Server URLs without https:// will receive an error message.

Chrome Store still on 2025.10.0

Any Problems with the Store?

Nail1684 · November 15, 2025, 12:20pm

Browser extension 2025.11.0 was released only yesterday on GitHub - and it usually takes a few days with Chrome Web Store…

mutilator · November 15, 2025, 5:24pm

There were also the following versions:

2025.10.1
2025.10.2

None of them were available in the store. That’s why I’m asking if there are any problems.

@mutilator I think this comment from @rmcdowell in a GitHub issue with a similar question answers that far better as I could:

A post was merged into an existing topic: Safari extension 2025.11.0 doesn’t seem to be connecting to home base

Release notes say “… Windows Hello update: You can now unlock your vault with biometrics immediately after the Windows desktop app restarts, rather than entering a master password or PIN. When setting up biometrics in the Windows desktop app, uncheck Require master password or PIN on app restart.”

I am not finding this setting “When setting up biometrics in the Windows desktop app, uncheck Require master password or PIN on app restart.” Am I missing something?

Have you enabled Windows Hello on your computer? If yes, and if you also have enabled the option “Unlock with Windows Hello” in the Bitwarden Desktop app Settings, then try disabling and re-enabling this option.

Preet · November 16, 2025, 4:16pm

yes i hv windows hello enabled on my computer. on Bitwarden desktop app i unchecked unlock with windows hello, quit the app, then opened it and again enabled unlock with windows hello. I do not see this setting of “to check/uncheck require master password or pin on app restart. When I quit the app now and open it again, I see this.

Nail1684 · November 16, 2025, 4:35pm

Then I would recommend to deinstall/reinstall desktop app 2025.11.0. Here’s how it should look like in Settings:

Preet · November 16, 2025, 5:26pm

I dont see it? I uninstalled the desktop app, restarted my PC and then installed desktop app version 2025.11.0 and this is what I see:

Update: After the reinstall, it took a while for the setting to appear. I quit the app and again reopened it for the setting to appear.

Thanks Bitwarden Team for getting this
