How to Access and View Passkeys in Windows 11 Settings

This article explains how to view Passkeys for apps and websites in Windows 11.

Passkeys provide a more secure and convenient way to sign in. With passkeys, you can use Windows Hello to sign in with a PIN, facial recognition, or fingerprint, making the authentication process faster and more convenient.

When you set up passkey authentication for websites and apps, Windows will store the passkey for each site and app on the local machine.

Each passkey is unique to each website or application, so you don’t have to worry about someone using your passkey to access other services.

Windows lets you view the passkey for app sites and apps in its Settings app. The steps below walk you through accessing the passkey for sites and apps in Windows 11.
