Been stuck with this issue for like, 2 years, and its just a really hard thorn in my neck as time goes on.
Upon being prompted to enter my pin to verify its me, nothing I do will ever make this damn security test function. As said in title, entering a pin, cancelling, or trying to exit yields with two results. That result depends on the program- if it's opera/chrome, it will crash the entire browser and exit the prompt. If it's for a purchase verification on the store application, it will reboot the prompt instantly, like nothing happened. Will never go away and sometimes in this situation, task manager won't get rid of it, forcing me to restart to close it.
This issue doesn't affect me in any way really besides the browser part. I can't view ANY of my saved passwords, because it prompts for my pin. Idk who the hell's idea it was to integrate browser security with windows security but it is what it is
I've tried changing the startup type of credential manager, stopping it, restarting, etc, doesn't work. No clue why this started happening because needing to view my passwords is something that I barely needed to do so whenever I first found out it was broken, it could of been broken for months. Nobody knows.
so if anyone can help with this.. that'd be great. tired of windows 10 and it's absolute horrid 'features'
incase its not obvious what prompt i'm talking about heres a picture of it https://prnt.sc/vfu3h7
