Windows 10: FINGERPRINT SENSOR ELAN WBF NOT WORKING ON Windows 10 -

Hello,


After an update, the Windows Hello Fingerprint option is no longer available / doesnt work.


Here the info about my pc:

MODEL: HP 15-dw0014nl

Windows Version: 1909 Build 18363.592


I went to device manager and saw that there is a problem in the driver ELAN WBF Fingerprint Sensor.

Device Status:

This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. Code 31
{Operation Failed}
The requested operation was unsuccessful.


I am no pc expert and apart from checking for updates, I don't know what to do.

How can I solve the problem? I also tried to see if I could download the driver online in order to do uninstall&reinstall, but I couldn't find an official website and I didn't trust sources like softpedia.

Any help would really be appreciated.

Thanks,


Alessandro

Please help with the right driver to install.

Fingerprint sensor and Windows Hello don't work

So long story short, windows 10 crashed after my asus laptop did the October update. I was stuck on the automatic repair loop. No troubleshooting step worked, so I decided to clean install windows 10. After I installed a clean version of Windows 10, everything
worked fine (except for the fact that all my files are lost and I have to reinstall every program, thanks windows), however my fingerprint sensor doesnt work, and windows hello isnt activated. I checked device manager and there is a yellow exclamation mark
beside ELAN WBF Fingerprint Sensor under Biometric devices. Opening the properties and under device status, the following is written:

This device is currently waiting on another device or set of devices to start. (Code 51)

Dependencies:

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A32A&SUBSYS_1E401043&REV_10\3&11583659&0&F2

ACPI\INT3450\3&11583659&0

The drivers are up to date, however in windows update in the settings, the driver shows up as a failed install attempt. I have tried uninstalling the device and its drivers but it keeps getting reinstalled automatically after refreshing device manager.

Can someone please help?
