Windows 10: Face Recognition

My Windows Hello stopped working suddenly. I tried to set it up again but it will not let me take a picture in the Windows Hello setup

An Update About Face Recognition on Facebook

Privacy Matters

We’ve continued to engage with privacy experts, academics, regulators and people on Facebook about how we use face recognition and the options you have to control it.

We’ve made the steps to update your settings clearer and you can opt to leave your setting off right in the notice, as opposed to having to go to a separate screen. If you do nothing, face recognition will remain off for you.





There’s also an opportunity to review information about our technology and the features it powers so that you can make the choice that’s right for you.

Finally, Facebook’s face recognition technology still does not recognize you to strangers. We don’t share your face recognition information with third parties. We also don’t sell our technology.

These changes will be effective globally starting today.

Face Recognition

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand your concern as the facial recognition is accepting your two year old daughter’s face to unlock the Surface. Ideally this should not happen.



In this scenario, we would suggest you to reconfigure/recalibrate Windows Hello with Facial recognition.

1. Login to surface on your account.
   
2. Press Windows + I key to open
   Settings.
   
3. Click on Accounts and then
   Sign in options.
   
4. In that see Section
   Face Recognition and then select Remove.
   
5. Restart the PC and login with PIN or Password.
   
6. Then Press
   Windows + I key to open Settings.
   
7. Click on Accounts and then
   Sign in options.
   
8. In that see Section
   Face Recognition and then select Set up.
   

Note: Make sure when you are setting up the facial recognition, your daughter or any other person should not be in front of the PC.



As an additional information, you can refer this doc article:

Hope it helps.
