Windows 10: Fingerprint reader only works in one of windows 11 or windows 10 dual boot

I have a HP Pavilion Areo laptop with Windows 10 Pro and Windows 11 Home in dual boot.I found that the fingerprint reader will only work in one of the two. It worked a while in Windows 11 but not in Windows 10 "Something went wrong on our end". After reinstalling for other reasons Windows 10 and setting up fingerprint Hello there it now works in Windows 10 but no more in Windows 11.Can this be rectified or is it a known limitation, related to e.g. the TPM chip? or EFI boot partition?only things I can imagine; if each Windows' authentication stuff were stored on the system disks they shoul

Fingerprint Reader not working on Windows 10

I can't troubleshoot my device if it isn't allowed to load. I have attached images displaying my device and the most recent update attempt.



My fingerprint reader was working when I upgraded to Windows 10, but after a system refresh, it no longer works. I know that I have the correct drivers installed as they are the ones that came with my computer's setup files.





Something else may be preventing my reader from working. Please clarify Code 31.

This question isn't answered unless all instances of this problem are put to rest.
