I am on Edge Version 90.0.818.46.
Using the show password or export passwords buttons brings up the Windows Security popup on which I can enter my password/pin. Whether I enter my pin or password the popup stays open for about 1-2 seconds and then closes without edge doing anything. It is as if the security input crashes. This delay of closing also happens when i click on close or cancel. See attached video.
What i have tried so far:
I have cleared my edge account and cleared the browser, entirely. (as can be seen from the video as well)
I have run a repair on edge.
I have restarted the windows credentials service.
Restarted my pc many times.
What else can I do to fix this issue?
Thank you

Edge doesnt allow signing in with the same profile twice. But this even happens when there is no account linked whatsoever and I use the default empty profile.

Yes I know both. I was actually able to recover the passwords using a second pc. I logged into my account and let it sync and there it was able to show/export the passwords.
So I assume there is something wrong with my current windows installation and I will re-install Windows.
Oddly enough, I tested Chrome as well, and there the pin works perfectly fine as well.
