Welcome @malmentm, and thank you for raising this issue! The team will make time to prioritise this and hopefully issue will be resolved, but, would you like to submit a PR to address this?

Hi, I can confirm this issue. Windows Hello prompt is not centered on the app. I can add that currently Bitwarden for Windows even does not show the Windows Hello prompt on the correct monitor when you have 2 monitors. As a result you often do not realized you have been requested for your fingerprint.

I have the same issue. I use Windows Hello Face recognition on a wide monitor. As the Hello dialog is on the extreme left, your eyes are naturally drawn to it and you turn your face slightly, causing the face recognition to not work. I have to drag the dialog back to the centre of the monitor, and then it recognises me.

For face recognition it is even more problematic, right. I hope this issue is going to a higher priority quicky because this is about security and this should be the prior consideration for a tool like Bitwarden.

I also have the problem, but only after I have moved the Windows Hello prompt once myself.

This should be resolved in the latest version. The Windows Hello prompt now contains the expected window handler for the Bitwarden application and will be centered within the application window if visible.
