    2. Type services.msc and click on OK.
    3. Look for Windows Biometric Service, double click on it and click on Stop.
    4. Now, go to C:\Windows\System32\WinBioDatabase, take a backup of all the files inside the WinBioDatabase folder.
    5. After taking a backup of the files, delete all the files.
    6. Now, open Services by following step 1 and 2, and restart the Windows Biometric Service.
    7. Go to Start >> Settings >> Accounts >> Sign-in options and register the Face data again.

    Windows Hello "This option is currently unavailable"

    Hello, my Windows Hello Fingerprint and PIN have recently stopped working. I went into the settings it says that this option is currently unavailable and that "something went wrong, try again later." The Windows Hello
    Face works, but it just doesn't recognise me. How do I resolve this issue? Thank you for any solutions.
