Windows 10: Windows 10 fingerprint login isn't working after 2004 update, with correct battery option,...

Fingerprint stopped working after the recent 2004 update.


Windows can recognize incorrect fingerprint and prompt for pins, but when the fingerprint is correct, the login option flashes without actually logging in.




Attempts to solve the problem:

The hardware driver is up to date. Goodix 2.1.31.900. Option to turn device off to save power is disabled:



I have also tried deleting stuff under C:\Windows\System32\WinBioDatabase, removing fingerprint profiles, or restarting credential/biometric services. Please do not suggest these solutions.


Computer is Dell xps13 9380.


Thank you

:)

 

Printer isn´t working after latest update.

After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.

 

Fingerprint removed during upgrade and i can't login !!

Leaked Windows 8.1 Build Reveals Fingerprint Login – Screenshot



Word is that Microsoft will introduce fingerprint support in Windows 8.1, but the company has remained completely tight-lipped on the feature lineup of its next OS.

A new screenshot that reached the web a few hours ago reveals that Microsoft is indeed working on fingerprint authentication for Windows 8.1, even though it’s not yet clear if such an option would also be available in the stable build of the OS or not.

According to WinBeta.org, fingerprint support has been spotted in a recently-leaked development build of Windows 8.1, so chances are that it’s actually the preview version to be released in June.

As you most likely heard, Microsoft would unveil the first public beta of the Windows 8 update next month at the BUILD developer conference, while the stable release is expected later this year.
