Hello,
I’m a new user for bitwarden and would like to ask about something that seems to be missing or not functioning correctly.
I’ve managed to setup the link between the desktop BW app and the Firefox browser extension (unlock by Windows Hello by inputting the pin - even though the “biometrics” text is very misleading there), but i’m facing the following issues.
-
Usually i put the computer to Sleep at night (so no hard shut down). I’ve set up the app to timeout on computer restart. Upon resuming from sleep, the desktop app is behaving as expected, but the browser extension is locked, even though it was set to “on browser restart”. The browser window is not closed during Sleep.
-
Even though the browser extension is locked, i have to click on it every time to input the PIN for unlocking. How can i set it to automatically do that (i.e. pop up) upon resuming from Sleep (after showing/reloading the browser window, which was never closed) ?
-
If I set the desktop app to “start in tray” i never get the window to log in/unlock after a Windows restart and i’m forced to click on it every time. Any way around this, while keeping the “start to tray” option, and also directly linking to number 2 above?
-
Does setting the app to timeout “on system lock” include putting my PC to sleep AND restarting it? It looks like a top-down priority list, so not really sure if that’s how it actually functions.
Thanks
