    How to pair Microsoft Modern Keyboard with Fingerprint ID on Windows 10

    Not possible to set up Windows Hello Fingerprint with Microsoft Modern Keyboard with Fingerprint ID

    Hi,

    I can't set up Windows Hello Fingerprint with my Microsoft Modern Keyboard with Fingerprint ID.

    Windows Hello is configured well and works with Face Recognition but unfortunately not with Fingerprint.

    The Fingerprint "Set up" button is greyed out.

    I did some research and found several articles with a similar issue (not exactly with the Microsoft Modern Keyboard with Fingerprint ID).

    The solution was always to reinstall the biometric driver or to install the newest available driver.

    I uninstall my biometric driver and also downloaded and installed the newest driver for Microsoft Modern Keyboard with Fingerprint ID (KeyboardwithFingerprintIDInstaller_64bit_ENG_1.0.162 / https://www.microsoft.com/accessori...eyboard-with-fingerprint-id#techspecs-connect)
    but this doesn't solved my problem, the Fingerprint "Set up" button is still greyed out.

    I also tried all of this steps mentioned in this article:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4036292

    Don't helped me either.

    The biometric driver name is:

    "Keyboard Bluetooth Fingerprint Sensor"

    Obviously there is something going on, because when I uninstall the driver, I don't have anymore the Fingerprint section. Reinstall the driver the Fingerprint section is available again but as I mentioned it's greyed out.

    Is there maybe a pending update of this driver for the Windows 10 (1809)?

    Did I missed something?

    Windows Version:

    Windows 10 (1809)

    Device:

    Surface Pro (5th generation)

    Thanks in advance for your help.
