  2. Windows Hello Fingerprint Setup not working

    Hi,

    As per the description, I understand that the fingerprint feature does not work on Window10. We will assist you to resolve the issue.

    As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the finger print driver and check if that helps to resolve the issue.

    Please follow the below steps.


    • Delete the fingerprints you already registered.

    • Press Windows Key + R Key.

    • Then type “devmgmt.msc” and press
      Enter.

    • Uninstall the current driver
      the current diver under "Biometric devices".

    • You maybe have to click the "discover new hardware" symbol in the device manager.
    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.

    Windows Hello Fingerprint not registering issue

    Hi Leo_bridge,

    This fingerprint issue in Windows Hello may occur due to outdated or incompatible driver, corrupted user profile, or possibly a hardware issue. To help me determine possible solution, can you tell me what is your Windows build and version?

    As an initial troubleshooting, I recommend you to perform a clean boot to check for possible conflict that might be causing the issue. You can follow the steps under
    How to perform a clean boot on this link.

    If issue persist, I suggest creating a test user profile to check if your current user profile has been corrupted, causing the fingerprint to be unrecognized. You can refer to this
    link for the steps.

    Keep the thread updated with the results.
