Does it still not support "Windows Hello" style face unlock when closed? I remember I couldn't touch the fingerprint sensor when closed and the MacBook was unable to use my Windows Hello camera.

It seemed to just keep running with the lid closed. I think I woke it up with the keyboard and it didn't care whether the lid was open or closed.

I just used the keyboard to unlock by entering the password every time.
