  1. Windows Hello Connection


    I recently bought a new computer. I had set up Windows hello fingerprint reader. For a month or so, I was using the fingerprint reader, and everything was fine. Today, however, when I tried to open, it wasn't accepting my fingerprint. It kept showing to enter pin and password, not fingerprint sensor. When I remembered my pin, I immediately went to reset my fingerprint in settings. However, it showed the below description:

    Windows Hello Connection f8a84893-18a9-4087-a742-97e4e75fe30e?upload=true.jpg

    I need some help. How do I connect my scanner? I have my scanner on my laptop, but I don't understand why this is happening.

    Please help me reconnect my fingerprint sensor.

    :)

  2. windows Hello states it isn't available on this device

    Hi Tom,

    Try few of the troubleshooting steps below and check if you are able to access Windows Hello.

    Step 1: I suggest you to run
    Hardware and Devices troubleshooter
    as it checks for common problems and makes sure that any new device or hardware connected to your PC is installed correctly.

    • Press Windows key from the keyboard, type
      Troubleshooting and select it.
    • Click on view all option on the upper left corner of
      Troubleshooting window.
    • Select the Hardware and Device
      options from the list.
    • Click Next to run the
      Hardware and Device
      Troubleshooter.

    Step 2: Also, I suggest you to update the bio-metric finger print reader from Device Manager and check if it helps.

    • Press Windows + X from the keyboard, click on Device Manager.
    • Right click on Bio-metric finger print reader, click on
      Properties
      .
    • Go to Drivers tab, click on Update driver software.

    Step 3: I recommend you to install all the pending updates on your device and check if it helps.

    Steps:

    • Connect to the internet.
    • Press Windows key and type updates.
    • Click on Check for updates.
    • Under Windows Updates, click on Check for updates.
    • Try to install the updates being shown.
