    I just upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. After the installation, the Simple Pass option was not available for the lock screen and computer logon. How do I get it back?

    Hi Steve,

    Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

    It’s really unfortunate that you are facing this issue. But don't worry we will try to help you out.

    Windows Compatibility Center.

    Check if it is compatible with Windows 10. Refer the link below to do so:

    Windows | Official Site for Microsoft Windows 10 Home & Pro OS, laptops, PCs, tablets & more

    You can reinstall HP Simple pass and check if that works.

    I would suggest you to check out Windows hello which is a new feature in Windows 10.

    Windows Hello is a more personal way to sign in to your Windows 10 devices with just a look or a touch. You’ll get enterprise-grade security without having to type in a password.

    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.

    Hi Tommo

    Hard question to answer as no one really knows your exact setup or how your machine was initiated..

    That said if you know for a fact you didn't put any passwords in then you should be able to delete.

    Just to be sure I would create a restore point and I would create an Image with a tool like Macrium Reflect. It free, reliable and used by members. Never hurts having a system image.

    With these backups in place you reduce your risk. (Not saying to delete it or keep it, just have a plan B.)

    Thanks Ken,the only password used is my Microsoft Account,don't think I ever stored any passwords in Simple Pass so I'll do as you advised and use a back up.Cheers

    HP Simple Pass is a fingerprint password generator. It does not store passwords, just your fingerprint, if your computer supports it. If you use it, I would use a PIN or password in case it fails to read properly.

    Why did MS make a simple task more COMPLICATED when it was so EASY before??? I feel like NO...: I have an HP 17" laptop running Windows 10. When I bought it, I could hit the {prt sc} button once, and it would take a full screen shot and automatically save it to a file titled, get this..."Screen Shots". Yep, that was it, push the prt sc button just one time, and VOILA!...
