• If biometric unlock option like Windows Hello is on, try to unlock my vault with it when I open my browser instead of clicking the extension icon and select “unlock with Windows Hello” → YES.

Hello @ATMOSPHERE and welcome to the community,

Thanks for the request, it appears as though this is something that is already implemented at this time.
Though I do not have my computer with biometrics to test with currently, as I recall when opening the browser extension as long as the desktop app is also running and has been logged in with Allow browser integration enabled, then the browser extension will request to unlock the vault with biometrics.
Though this would not work to login to the vault, only unlock.

Here are a few relevant posts, hope that helps.

Automatic Biometric Selection In Browser

Hello, Really loving the integration with Windows Hello with the Chrome extension. Only problem is there is no option to default to biometrics. When clicking on the locked vault, the first option is to enter the master password. With “Unlock With Biometrics” being a secondary action that always requires manual selection. Would highly value if Windows Hello could be the default option, with the desktop bioauthentication popup occurring immediately after pressing the extension.
