  Press the Windows key + X and select Device Manager. Under biometrics, fingerprint reader not appear without one? or one! icon next to him?
  
  You mentioned that you have installed the driver. Did you also install the program SimplePass found on the link below? I saw a version of Windows 8 for the unit, but the version of Windows 7 can work. If the version of Windows 7 does not work, try right-clicking on the SimplePass program and select troubleshoot compatibility mode to see if it gets it to work.

• Pavilion dv6: fingerprint reader not working after update to Windows 10

  Hello

  Recently, after the update to Windows 10 fingerprint reader works just on my Pavilion dv6. I tried other methods I found on the forum, and I'm looking for a driver get the fingerprinter reader to work. I tried to download HP SimplePass (which has been removed from my PC by updating the operating system) in the hope he would get my fingerprint reader to work, but no luck.  I also looked in the settings (in Device Manager) for biomeric devices, and I found a driver with an exclamation point, indicating it wouldn't work. So, right now, I need a solution to get my to work on a fingerprint reader.

  Thank you

• Compaq nc6400 upgraded xp to win 7 can not get the fingerprint reader to work

  I have upgraded xp to win 7, as we will have to do, but can't get the fingerprint reader to work. It appears in the devices that there is one on the machine. I downloaded the drivers for Vista, but they got nowhere.  Read in many places as Vista drivers will work but I seem to need more than that. Any clue?  Thank you!!!

  Hello:

  Yes, for Vista fingerprint reader driver is the only one available, but you must install the software HP protect Manager security tools for Windows 7 from the model which succeeded the nc6400, who was the 6910p.

  You must also use the W7 driver quick launch buttons.

• Fingerprint reader not detected

  I have a HP Pavillion DV6007ea and all of a sudden the fingerprint reader has stopped working and I get a message that says "the fingerprint reader not detected".

• No fingerprint reader not connected to my computer

  I have a computer for entertainment DV7T-7000. The old hard drive crashed so I installed a new and put Windows 8 on it. Now, the fingerprint reader won't work. When I try to open my fingerprints, I get the message that the fingerprint reader is not connected. When I check the biometrics in Control Panel it says there is no can be found on this machine. I installed Simplepas from HP and the pilot of validity. How can I fix it?

  I did all the updates of Windows that were in the queue, rebooted and saw that biometrics in the Control Panel indicated the fingerprint reader. But when I tried to run the Windows logon option, it says that there is no software for the reader. I installed Simplepass of Authentec for HP and it showed everything. I have set up my fingerprints and the player works on everything he's supposed to. Sweet!

• Portege R830: don't seem to be able to get the fingerprint reader to work

  HI - need help.

  I have a Toshiba R830 I got "downgrade" to Windows 7 32 bit version pre-installed 64-bit. Long story - but it's the software compatibility.

  Despite the download and the installation of what I think is all the relvant 32 drivers - I don't seem to be able to get the fingerprint reader to work.

  I downloaded and installed the software fp-sw-201103311304 Tosh - chilled out and tried to install it.

  It's actually hard to know if it is installed! I get a window telling me it will extract the file in a directory C:\temp and tells me at the same time that 'tinstallwb.exe' will start once the extraction is complete.

  It seems to extract - but I do not see that the installation is happening.

  Subsequently it is has that nothing listed in the title of the programs - and nothing "launches."

  In Device Manager - I can't see anything that is listed as "fingerprint reader" under security features - the list is TPM 1.2. Not actually sure that is nothing to do with the fingerprint reader - well I've enabled and then disabled via the BIOS.

  Am I missing something?
  Could the reader [which I have not used since the new - even if it's only 8 weeks] have stopped working?

  Would be very grateful for pointers.

  Try to start the installation manually. On the desktop create a folder unpack and after doing the beginning downloaded exe. Extract the files to the folder unpack and disable command run after extraction.

  When files are checked almost open and Toshiba archive extracted file extractor. You will find setup.exe.
  Try please to start it manually.

• Often fingerprint reader stops working after laptop wakes from sleep (Pavilion dv6)

  I am convinced that the fingerprint reader is fine. There must be a problem with the driver may, something inconsistent with a recent update of the Windows 7 software?

  The scenario:

  • Laptop works very well.  I put on standby when I'm done and use the mousepad to wake him up.  LED fingerprint reader blinks, and I can drag my finger to log on.
  • At one point, after a few times to put the laptop to sleep and wake, the fingerprint reader does not.  No flashing.  I slide my finger and the player does not respond at all - is not yet tell me that there was a bad reading.
  • If I login and log back in again, no change. However, if I do a reboot, everything is fine - the fingerprint reader works again.

  I watched over and over again for new drivers and installed.  Nothing seems to affect this scenario.   Unfortunately, this has started to happen about 9 months ago () and because of the sporadic nature of it, I was not attentive enough to know the 'precise' point in time when it started happening.  My instincts tell me that there was some sort of update software/driver along the way which is originally the fingerprint reader not do not work right.  I hope HP continues a relationship with these companies to fingerprint reader and can transmit these questions so that we can do a software update.  But... I don't know if it has been abandoned.  My laptop is still under warranty, but it would be ridiculous to send in just this problem.

  I hope that someone has heard of this on the dv6 and may know a solution.  Thank you!

  My system is a HP dv6-6145dx.  I am running Windows 7, with the latest updates.  The integrated fingerprint reader works on HP Simple pass 2011 v5.1 and Validity Sensor driver 4.3.205.0 version.  When I try to launch the Simple passage interface, it loads the database, but then the application disappears.  I tried to uninstall and reinstall the software, but makes no difference with the issue, I noted.

  "If you keep an open mind, life will give you more opportunities."

  No problem, I am completely I shouldn't bother with Pass Simple version 8.  I advanced and installed version 6.  I did not yet get no joy, so I did a little more digging and found one more late Validity Sensor driver, version 4.3.304 (not noted in the list of update driver for my laptop model).  IT WORKED.  I can now go into hibernation and the fingerprint reader remains functional when the system is out of hibernation.  Previously, it was pretty much guaranteed became disabled.  So... it looks that my problem is now solved.

  Comment

  • The Eagle sensor recommended is actually suitable for Windows 8.1 (and 8); the driver works in Windows 10.
  • The program supported the series 8 HP SimplePass is evaluated from Windows 7 to Windows 10.

  

  IF you were using previously series 6 HP SimplePass (any version of HP SimplePass 6.x):

  • It is time to move as a result of program series 8 HP SimplePass supported.
  • Even if you have an export of your webcards (Web sites / passwords) of this older version of SimplePass, you can use file .tsd (import) series 6 in series 8 HP SimplePass.  The two sets of program are NOT compatible.  There is no program of conversion of encryption between the two programs.
  • When you switch to the supported HP SimplePass version, you must create a new database of your Web sites / passwords.   This means you must create all new connections to fingerprints.
  • The new export file "webcard" is called the vault to series 8 HP SimplePass program.  The suffix of the file is ".opi".  The export process is similar to the old SimplePass program; you export your vault entries from within the SimplePass program to the file .opi.  The file is encrypted - keep - the in a safe place.

• Fingerprint reader not working not not after sleep

  So, I've mentioned this problem in a previous post and was directed here http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-67245 which is a patch that could solve this. This patch did not work. What happens when my laptop back to sleep or the fingerprint reader does not, it says "waiting...". "the top of the screen instead of the normal scan message and don't answer not, or in some cases when I click on other identifying information, it shows a third account (first is my account, second is the account of the player, and the third is a thing stop sign that says that the fingerprint reader is not attached). When I connect with my normal password and try to go to the fingerprint software, it appears a bit is window that is labeled Digital Footprints Lenovo 2.0 and the message "Please wait...". ».

  Other then returning to sleep the fingerprint reader has been working well. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, thank you.

  Edited to add link patch.

  Well, I was still functioning, but I'm not exactly sure how. I'm going on what I've been through so that you guys can get an idea and fix if necessary. To start I spoke to Ms support and I worked with them for a very long period. They tried different drivers installation (other AuthenTec then) and every time we did it he would say "Fingerprint reader is not available" at the opening of the session. They have tried to change the power settings and devices that could wake up from my computer and that had no effect either. I called Lenovo and they basically just told me to download the software that was already on the computer and change the option to have it wake up the computer, which does not exist. They were very helpful.

  What eventualy get it working (and it's been working so far), is to uninstall the driver and software. Then reinstall everything and install the patch link above. The first time I install it, I just double clicked on it and went through the installation process. But you must go to the folder, he settled in (C:\DRIVERS\VISTA\FPIRPON\) and double click on FPIRPOn.reg which will add the fix in the registry. In addition to this I also went into the Device Manager and unchecked the box that allows the computer turn on of the fingerprint reader under properties-> the power management of the device. The last thing I did was make an edition of registry to force reset USB every time that wake from sleep. I found the registry change here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928631/en-us.

  So I'm sure it's the patch that fixed when I installed correctly it because I tried both the thing of power management to prevent of turns off AND editing the registry and it did not work. I also thing that Vista SP1 solves what the registry edit did, but I tried anyway because I was desperate haha. I'll cancel the registry change and thing of management one of power at a time and see if it still works. If it does not continue to work I guess it's a hardware problem and want to call Lenovo to get it repaired.

  Anyone who has this problem I would say that they are trying the patch in the link I posted (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-67245) and follow the installation instructions carefully. Good luck!

• Fingerprint reader not working not not upon awakening from sleep for the windows login

  Hello
  I have a new T540P with a validity fingerprint reader.

  About 80% of the time, the fingerprint reader does not meet the windows login screen after the wake up the computer from sleep mode. It works 100% of the time when starting from a stop position, however. Once connected, it also works 100% of the time. The question arises when you log in to windows.

  I tried many things

  -uninstallation/installation of the device in the Device Manager and finger print manager pro software

  -prints of setting through two fingerprint Manager software pro (lenovo) OR through the windows built in options of the control panel of the fingerprints

  -disabling "allow windows to turn off this device to save power" in Device Manager.

  Thus, I must say that I have an another T540P I ordered as a replacement. Both models encounter the same problem.

  Is it a matter of broad platform affecting all models of T540P? It's frusterating.

  
  

• Fingerprint reader not working after hibernation

  Does anyone else have the problem of the fingerprint reader does not work after hibernate? It is an intermittent problem, happens all the time, but frequently. Out of hibernation, it flashes, move my finger, nothing happens, flashing stops and the drive does not work after that. I have to enter my password of Windows and it does not work for all Web sites. Must restart to re-engage the drive.

  I'm on Win 7 Home Prem 64 bit with the latest drivers for the fingerprint reader and last update for Authentec software.

  So, here is the solution (s) found by Pokey and me:

  Option 1:  Computer properties, Device Manager, biometric devices, validity sensors, properties and the power management tab, uncheck the box "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

  Option 2:  Try deactivation and activation of the 'Credential Manager' service by going to control panel, Administrative Services, Manager tools of credentials.  Even if the credentials manager status is "started", stop the service credentials manager and restart it. Find more information here: https://support.authentec.com/Forum/tabid/318/forumid/49/threadid/600/scope/posts/Default.aspx

  Option 3:  Do both.
