Might be difficult. But a simple number lock isn't too difficult.

I guess you can use the Windows password API* to authenticate to WSA.

  • I don't know what's its real name, it's that thing that pops up when you try to view a Chrome password

Thank you! I'll check it out.

Sorry, I meant that MS can implement that. As far as I know that feature does not exist.

The Windows Auth API is really powerful, it can use your password as well as fingerprint, face recognition and even a hardware security key. Basically however you login to Windows. WSA is the perfect use for it.
