    A few days ago my son downloaded something and it somehow bypassed my approval for installation. My virus scan caught it and stopped it, but unfortunately I still started having errors. I restored to a week before it happened and I have logged in with no problems since.Today my son tried to log in and it gave him an error, which I did not get to see before he clicked off of it. Now neither his, nor my wife's, names appear on the log-in screen. I logged back in and found that their profile folders are missing. I went to restore again and now only have one from the 13th which is the day that I r

    fingergprint log-in for family member

    Hi Kristi

    Through Windows Hello, you may have your family members register different accounts with their fingerprints.

    Once you are signed as the family account administrator, you may follow the steps below:

    • Right-click the Start button.
    • Go to Settings.
    • Select Accounts.
    • Choose Family & other users.
    • Add people using the Your family, or Other users options. The only difference between the two is with family, you get an access to child controls, for monitoring and blocking content.

    Once your child is logged into his or her own accounts, they can now set up their own
    Windows Hello log-in. Refer to the steps below:

    • Click Start.
    • Go to Settings.
    • Choose Accounts.
    • Select Sign-in options.
    • Select Windows Hello.
    • Choose Fingerprint, then Set up.

    After performing the steps, kindly share with us the result.

    Family Member Log In

    I set up a family member on Windows 10 following the instructions. The family member signed in and accepted being part of my family and shows up in my family online.

    Now when that member tries to log in on my laptop, the screen says welcome and then immediately signs out. I've tried it multiple times and have set up a new email account each time with no luck.

    Family Member Log In

    Hi,

    We need to clarify some information first for us to know what is causing the log-in issue of your family member. Kindly answer the following:

    • How did you add the account of your family member to your laptop?
    • You mentioned that you've set up a new email account. When you added the new email account to your computer, did you add a new user account or did you just a edited an existing user account?
    • Does the issue also occur when you add non family member account to your computer?

    It is possible that a service or program running in the background is hindering your family member from logging in to your PC. We recommend booting your computer to
    Safe mode with Networking for us to verify if the issue will occur while Windows 10 is running with only minimal
    drivers and services.

    We hope to hear from you soon.
