    Facial rec as a two-factor device?


    I use facial recognition on startup Surface 4. Question is, with the constant request for two factor authentication I'm using the verification code text or the authenticator. Can I set up windows hello facial rec instead or as well? It would be a lot easier.

    :)

    Facial recognition

    Hello Bill,

    We need to do further investigation on your concern so that we will know why the facial recognition quit working:

    • Have you recently made any changes/updates prior to this issue?
    • Is there an error message when you try to sign using facial recognition?
    • What is the make and model of your computer?

    In the meantime, I would suggest that you perform the troubleshooting steps in this
    article.

    We will wait for your response.

    Regards.

    Windows Hello facial ID won’t work

    Hi,

    There are a few reasons why this Windows Hello facial recognition fails, such as outdated driver, compatibility or OS update. We'd like to know if you made any changes on your device prior to the issue, such as installing update or change settings?

    As an initial troubleshooting, we suggest you to reset Facial Recognition by following these steps:

    • Press Windows key + I to open Settings.
    • Click Accounts and select Sign-In options.
    • Locate Facial Recognition options and click Remove under them.
    • Click Get Started and follow the on-screen instructions to reset Facial Recognition.
    • Restart your computer.

    If issue persist, update your drivers by following the steps on this link. You can also check your device
    manufacturer for latest release of drivers.

    Keep us updated with the results.
