Microsoft, like a lot of tech companies, believes that we’re finally edging closer to be able to say goodbye to passwords. The hope is that we will soon be able to use passkeys instead, which are more secure and harder to steal.

On existing devices, users can switch to the new Outlook for Windows from a toggle in the Mail and Calendar applications.
