    Hello Ramya Bhagirathi,

    This is what you can do if you are encountered with such an issue.

    So this happens whenever we use our saved password on Google Chrome. The easy and quick fix is to Disable 'Use Windows Hello when filling passwords'.

    Steps:

    1. Click on 3 dots near your Profile Icon.
    2. Hover over Password and Autofill.
    3. Click on Google Password Manager.

    Then,

     4. Disable **Use Windows Hello when filling passwords**.
    
     5. Enter your PIN for confirmation. That's it!.
    

    Now this feature has been disabled.

    Hello Ramya Bhagirathi,

    If you're encountering Windows Security pop-ups every time you use a saved password in Chrome and you want to disable this behavior, you can try the next actions:

    • Disable Windows Hello PIN and fingerprint: Basically this is one of the reasons why the pop-up appears. It is away to keep protected and verified any access to stored password information. Bear in mind that disabling this could increase the security risks, and also some organizations have them enabled by default by administrators.

    The steps would be:

    1.Open the Windows Settings app (Windows key + I).

    2.Go to "Accounts" > "Sign-in options."

    3.Under "Windows Hello PIN," click "Remove."

    4.Under "Fingerprint," click "Remove" (if applicable).

    5.Restart your computer.

    • Use Chrome Auto-Signin: To disable Chrome from asking you to sign in with your Windows Hello PIN or fingerprint, you can try the following:

    1.Open Chrome.

    2.In the Chrome address bar, type chrome://flags/ and press Enter.

    3.Search for "Identity consistency between browser and cookie jar" (or use Ctrl + F to find it quickly).

    4.Set this flag to "Disabled."

    5.Relaunch Chrome by clicking the "Relaunch" button at the bottom of the Chrome window.
