Windows 10: Report: You’ll be soon able to login into Windows 10 using your Google account

Google might be making fun of Windows in its latest Chromebook ads but the search engine giant is working on several new features for Chrome on Windows 10. Google Chrome recently received native notification support on Windows 10 and today a new finding suggests that the browser will support the Credential Providers feature in the operating system.

A massive code commit on Chromium suggests that Google is working on a new feature that will allow users to login into Windows 10 via their Google account. By the looks of things, the feature is aimed at enterprises and it’ll require the Google G Suite users.


A concept showing Google login and Windows 10 integration

“Google Credential Provider for Windows. Initial commit of COM object implementation,” a commit containing close to 12,000 line of codes read.

According to Microsoft, credential providers are the primary mechanism for user authentication.

“They currently are the only method for users to prove their identity which is required for logon and other system authentication scenarios. With Windows 10 and the introduction of Microsoft Passport, credential providers are more important than ever; they will be used for authentication into apps, websites, and more,” Microsoft explains.

Windows Latest understands that Google is planning to use Chrome to enable this integration and more details will be uncovered when Google implements the feature in Chrome Canary.

Google account login not working with Microsoft Family Safety enabled.

I have two Windows 10 computers/accounts that have Microsoft Family Safety enabled for my 13 & 15 year olds. Both are not able to login to their Google accounts via IE11, Edge browser or even the built in mail app. If I disable MS Family Safety on their
accounts, everything (Google account login) works just fine. There are no site restrictions in place and placing Google in the allow list has no effect.

Anyone experience the same problem or have any suggestions.

Windows 10 multiple system login crap! [Solved!] Thanks to Kursah!

Windows 10 Sign in: Password, PIN, Picture Password

Using login credentials is best practice, and is going to be more and more among the norms. You can bypass needing a password if you're NOT using a Microsoft account. But if you are, that's an online linked account...wouldn't make any sense to be able to automatically login to a sync'd account without credentials would it?

If you're using local accounts or non-domain accounts, you don't need to have a password to login. See link above, you'll be able to make the changes you need by following that, in a few minutes your frustrations will be gone. *Toast :toast:
