    Is there a way to disable passkeys in Windows 11?


    I've been using a security key Yubikiey for years as 2FA on several accounts. It used to work very easily, I'd type in my credentials, then simply touch the Yubikey and by logged in. Now for about a month, since a Windows update, after entering my credentials I'm prompted whether I want to use a mobile device or a security key, I need to click 'security key' and then click 'OK' before touching my Yubikey. Is there any way to have my computer or web browser default to security key or is there a way to disable passkey mobile device entirely?

    :)

    Disable "iPhone, iPad, or Android device" option for Passkey Sign-in

    Ok, so it is not that you already have that set up and have scanned the QR code using your mobile device, but you've been using security key instead, and now this pop up creates an extra step for you, because you have to click the security key option manually, is that right?

    In that case, then no, the website will not be listed in the passkey section. And also there's no way to default the security key over the passkey. I am afraid this is something that will have to go to Feedback hub (Windows +F).

    My apologies. The website of duo threw me off and I admit I didn't look closely.

    Indeed, this is the passkey feature.

    As of now, the only native way to delete them is via Settings > Accounts > Passkeys, you would see a list of websites listed here. You will need to click on the three dots of each one to delete them.

    How to enter bluetooth device passkey into Windows 10


    Trying to pair a bluetooth device (Kindle tablet) to my desktop PC. Bluetooth turned on in both devices. Tablet show my computer's name and provides a passkey that Windows 10 must use. When I go to Devices and Printers, Bluetooth...Windows will search for devices, list an unknown one, but I see nowhere to give it the passkey to use. I tried Add Device, but it only searches. Does not ask for passkey. Where do I enter passkey information for a bluetooth device into Windows 10?
