    On 15 January 2021, Windows 10 automatically installed KB4586878 onto my Lenovo Yoga 460. The fingerprint scanner stopped working at that time but I did not associate the update with the problem at that time.


    I lived without the fingerprint scanner for the next weeks but grew more frustrated about it. On researching the issue I found that I had a similar issue in 2020 related to a Windows update so today I uninstalled this update and voila, the fingerprint scanner works again.


    There is a problem with the QA processes to approve a Windows update for Lenovo Yoga 460s! If you have this problem, just UNINSTALL the automatic update and it might be resolved.

    :)

    windows automatic updates

    i have some questions about the windows automatic updates in windows xp pro w sp/2. ive got about forty updates they recommend , mostly for security but i only installed two today. after installing them i found them in my add/remove programs in the control panel, if i add all these updates that is a lot of space on my hd almost 1 gig. i thought that updates just updated files and not created new programs. should i innore all these update suggestions from microsoft?

    Vista Automatic Updating Error

    Resolution Suggestion:

    # To resolve this problem, make sure that BITS and the Automatic Updates service are started..

    A simple solution but one that works in most circumstances!

    1. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.

    2. In the list of services, right-click Automatic Updates, and then click Properties.

    3. In the Startup type list, click Automatic, and then click Apply.

    4. If Service status is set to Stopped, click Start, and then click OK.

    5. Right-click Background Intelligent Transfer Service, and then click Properties.

    6. In the Startup type list, click Manual, and then click Apply.

    7. If Service status is set to Stopped, click Start, and then click OK.
