  1. Administrator local user account - Windows Hello Fingerprint setup


    Hi Microsoft Team,

    I have a problem using the features of Windows Hello Fingerprint.

    I used the local user account administrator as default login in my machine but when I setup the fingerprint it showed the message error "Sorry, something went wrong"? Any idea how to resolve the issue using the administrator account default from local user?



    Thanks ,

    JM

    :)

    Hello Erin,

    The issue may be caused by a corrupted profile. What we recommend is that you create a new profile and check if you will be able to setup Fingerprint & PIN. To create a new profile, kindly follow the steps provided in the article below.

    Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10

    If the issue persists, kindly get back to us.
