  1. Fingerprint, PIN, and Shift + Reset Not Working


    Currently my fingerprint option doesn’t work and when I try to use the pin an error messages says “Something happened and your PIN isn’t available.” I’ve tried the Shift + Reset method but that doesn’t do anything, it just normally resets the pc

    :)

    PIN and FingerPrint not working

    Hi,

    We understand that you're having challenges with your finger print login option. You may be facing it due to various reasons. To start troubleshooting, we suggest that you uninstall and reinstall the
    finger print driverand check if the issue reoccur. Follow the steps below:

    • Delete the fingerprints you've already registered.
    • Press Windows Key + R Key.
    • Then type “devmgmt.msc” and press Enter.
    • Uninstall the current driver the current diver under "Biometric devices".
    • You maybe have to click the "discover new hardware" symbol in the device manager.

    Let us know how it works.
