I shifted to Firefox from Google Chrome and now missing a feature. Almost all other Chromium based browser have this feature. It is Windows Hello integration. It's basically like when someone tries to see my password from saved password in browser a pop-up window arrives which verifies is it me who is trying to see the password or not by scanning my face (face recognition). I saw Firefox Nightly has this feature but since it updates everyday and requires restart so it is quite annoying for me. I wanted to know if is there any way to enable Windows Hello in Firefox stable build. NOTE THAT, I am aware of "master password" and not talking about that. I am attaching a screenshot of Windows Hello in Chrome browser.

You can toggle this pref to true on the about:config page to enable OS authentication.

  • signon.management.page.os-auth.enabled = true

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can click the button to "Accept the Risk and Continue".

Note that this doesn't encrypt the logins stored in logins.json like a Primary Password does and having access to logins.json and key4.db and place them in a profile is sufficient. This is merely to make it impossible to access/view passwords in Lockwise easily, but Firefox will still be able to fill a login on a webpage without asking for approval.
