Recently, when I try to log into my amazon account, when I get to the password prompt, a window pops up from Defender saying firefox asked it to request a PIN. I close this window and proceed with any problem. How can I stop this annoying, useless action?

I never heard Amazon login would ask for PIN? I think that is something else other then Amazon or Firefox doing. I have Firefox forum account login and Amazon account and never saw this popup. If you can provide a screenshot of this error it would help others see if they get the same when going to Amazon as well. But block out any private data before posting to be safe so people just see the site itself and can see if the error happens on their side.

That's for Windows itself that isn't from Amazon.
