While scraping (gmaps).. I get constant passkey requests popups from google and sites being scraped. Normally, I can do disable Windows Hello passkey prompts in Chrome options .. but since we do not have access to browser settings in the scraper .. i think you need to turn this option off some other way.
Believe it or not, the requests were being broadcast over my RDP connection .. which i thought was crazy. Then I found the latest Win11 RDP has the WebAuthn option checked by default. I unchecked it and it worked .. until I RDP’d again .. so you manually have to recheck it or save an RDP file. The only other workaround i found was to disable it in Group Policy Editor .. and that worked.
But I figure .. you could stop it at the source before it happens to everyone who starts using passkeys .. which I otherwise highly recommend.
I don’t have hello or passkeys active. I do remember seeing that box before when I was setting up a new win 11 box. Thought it was weird you couldn’t disable it. However I haven’t seen it in SCM window.
Ill put in a patch for it that will hopefully block the window from appearing in the next update.
Please update when its ready and report back if it worked or not for you.
