I have a desktop PC, a travel laptop and a stationary laptop. All share the same Windows account and passkey to log into Windows. All 3 machines can login fine. For web sites however, only the travel laptop will log into the sites. For the other 2 machines, I get:
"there was a problem signing in with your passkey"
I have to do it the old way using a credentials list that I keep on a memory stick. An example is Amazon, where it logs out from time to time, which is probably for security as I have more than 1 device. Looking up the error message on Google gives me Reddit and Microsoft support users who can't sign into Windows with their passkey, which isn't my issue because the passkey works fine for Windows logon. I also searched here and can't find any thread titles matching "passkey". Anyone got any ideas, or is a 3rd party password manager the way forwards? It does seem a waste for me though if Windows can already do it fine on one of my machines.
Probably not relevant, but Samsung smartpass on my phone+tablet works perfecto, including on Amazon.
