    fingerprint sensor not detected, but there is one on my pc oops


    As you can see, Fingerprint is locked.Because the Fingerprint Sensor is blocked, I can't conveniently sign in just by a finger scan..This is not good. Any fixes?

    Multiple Fingerprint Sensors on PC

    Hello,

    I am trying to connect more than one fingerprint sensors on the PC, to use with Windows Hello but this is usually buggy - and in the end both stop working until I remove one.

    Is this a known issue (Search but found nothing) or is there a limit on how many fingerprint sensors you can connect to a PC?

    You can use the fingerprint sensor with any program that supports it. For now, as far as I am aware, the fingerprint sensor on a Windows PC is only usable for signing in. I'll be happy to be corrected.

    Let's hope that changes. I can use the fingerprint sensor on my Android phone to sign in to several apps.

    Windows doesn't recognize my laptop's fingerprint sensor.

    Hello,

    I just bought a used HP elitebook 840 G2 which has a fingerprint sensor, I tried to link it to windows hello but couldn't. Tried to check if my fingerprint sensor drivers are up to date but couldn't even find one so I installed it from the windows website.
    Now that I installed it I still can't find it on my drivers list and windows hello still can't detect a fingerprint sensor on my laptop. Happy holidays and merry christmas to everyone.
