drivers for precise biometrics mc 250

Hi Domenico,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Plug in the device and run the Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter first to check if that helps.

Method 1: Run the Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter.

Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with the Bluetooth adapter. Refer these steps:

• Press Windows key + X, select Control panel.
• Change the view by option on the top right to
  Large icons.
• Click on troubleshooting and click on the
  view all option on the left panel.
• Run the Hardware and devices troubleshooter.
• Restart your computer and check if the issue is resolved.
  

If the above method didn’t work then follow the below method

If the drivers for the precise biometrics mc 250 still couldn’t get detected I would suggest you to install the drivers in compatibility mode and check if it works.

Method 2: Compatibility mode

I would suggest you to install the latest available drivers on manufacturer's website in compatibility mode.

Follow the steps below on how to install driver in compatibility mode:

1. Download the driver from the manufacturer’s website and save it on your local disk.
