Touch ID in not default method

I had to reinstall macOs and parallels different time because I had a problem with my Macbook.
I noticed that only one time parallels grants me with default Touch ID access to windows.
The other time, including the last one, I had to click on "other access option" , select "Fingerprint" and than access to windows via Touch ID.
I try enabling PIN access. I try deleting PIN access.
Any solution?
Last version of parallels and Windows 11 24H2 build 26100.2605

Thanks
 
EDIT:
The Touch ID default option only works when parallels is in normal mode, So the windows finish to start and is on the Lock Screen, one click away from the login screen with the different method to login (Touch ID, fingerprint etc.).
When parallels is set to Coherence mode it doesn't work anymore. Windows start and go directly to the login screen and I have to click on "other Methods"->"fingerprint"-> and then use Touch ID.

Is there any way to works in coherence mode?

Late in the day, but in case anyone comes across this, here's what I did. (Apple M1, Parallels 20, Windows 11 Pro / 24H2 26100.4946)
YMMV

Most important > make sure you know your password.
Switch off pin / go back to password login by removing Pin access in Settings -> Accounts -> Pin

Log out
On the login screen, select Fingerprint on the other ways to sign in screen.
Enter password.
Parallels notification should say Touch will be used next time you log in (paraphrasing)
Test by logging out.
Use touch ID successfully to log in.
Also works in coherence mode.
All set hopefully.
