    I have a ThinkPad laptop model T460 from Lenovo. I have the hardware for finger scan but can't enable it. Can you help? Also can I use iris scan to log to my account? If yes, how?

  2. scanned documents

    Hello,

    By default, scans are saved in a Scans folder inside the Pictures. Here are the steps on how to get there:

    • Press Windows and type pictures
    • Click Pictures and double-click the Scans folder.

    Furthermore, we suggest that you repair your Word application by following the steps on this

    Let us know how that turned out for you.

    Hi Nalintha,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. I understand that finger scanner is not working after upgrading to Windows 10.

    This may occur due to outdated or incompatible drivers. Let's try the following methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1: Run the hardware device troubleshooter and check if it helps.

    Follow the below steps:

    • Press Windows key and type troubleshooting in the search bar.
    • Select Troubleshooting.
    • Select View all on the top left corner.
    • Click on Hardware and Devices.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions to run the troubleshooter.

    Method 2: Update the finger scanner drivers.

    • Press Windows key + X and click on
      Device manager.
    • Expand Human Interface Devices.
    • Right click on your finger scanner device.
    • Click on Update Driver Software
      and follow the onscreen instructions.
    Hope this helps you. Keep us posted with the status of the issue to assist you further.
