When enabling the extension for autofill, it prompted me to "Enable Passwords in iCloud for Windows to use iCloud Passwords with Edge." Enabling for autofill used to work just fine.
Works great, but blocks the saving and filling credit card details in Edge. (The extension takes control of the "Save and fill payment info" in Settings and forces it off.) Using this app makes managing passwords easier if you use iCloud Passwords, but makes dealing with credit cards more difficult.
202-12-18 update: I can't authorize the extension, and this is where the error is happeining in background.js:
async enableQRCodeScanning(e) {
return this.hasSetUpContentScript ? this.#C("enableQRCodeScanner", {
isEnabled: e
}) : Promise.reject(new ContentScriptNotSetUpInFrame(this))
}

Stopped recognizing password fields, and now without Windows Hello it's completely unusable. Please remove the Windows Hello requirement
