edge 142

Edge 142 introduces the ability to save and sync passkeys to the Microsoft Password Manager, enabling passwordless authentication across Windows devices. Passkeys are FIDO2/WebAuthn-based credentials that replace traditional passwords with asymmetric cryptography and local user verification via Windows Hello or a device PIN. This update closes a practical gap in Microsoft's passwordless push, allowing users to create, store, and use passkeys seamlessly across devices tied to the same Microsoft Account. The feature relies on a Microsoft Password Manager PIN and Windows Hello for secure access, enhancing phishing resistance and cross-device credential portability.
