Windows 10: How to erase all my fingerprints from my Microsoft account?

Hi! Years ago I had set up a fingerprint for my user windows account connected with Microsoft account. One day I made a clean install of Windows 10 on that device but before that I didn't remove the fingerprint from user account and didn't remove the device from Microsoft account. As a result, when I tried to set up the same fingerprint to my Microsoft account on the fresh windows, I saw this message "That fingerprint has already been set up on another account Windows". Back then I "solved" this problem just assigning another finger.. Recently my SSD died and I reinstalled Windows again. And

Toshiba Fingerprint don't works with Microsoft account on Windows 10

Hello

I"ve upgraded to Windows 10 yesterday.

First, Windows 10 asked me to type my local password.

After a second reboot, the Toshiba Fingerprint allowed me to sign in with my local account... So Toshiba Fingerprint seems to work on W10.

But then, as Windows suggests me, I've setted my Microsoft account instead of local account... Then, it erased my local password... and then, Toshiba Fingerprint seems to not worked anymore, it doesn't appear on the Windows login page anymore :-/

how to allow this software to work with a "non local" account then?

why doesn't this Toshiba Fingerprint appear in the biometrics settings?

will I have to choose between the full online Windows experience or the fingerprint login capability? :-/

Regards

Stephan

Anyone with the Microsoft Modern fingerprint keyboard ?

It's got a fingerprint sensor, whoopee! https://www.microsoft.com/accessori...microsoft-modern-keyboard-with-fingerprint-id

No, haven't tried it. Like @Bill_Bright says, keyboards are a very personal choice
