HP ENVY Notebook PC m6: biometric device problem

After I've updated for Windows 10, if I leave my active biometric device, my mouse pointer/cursor continuous flickering as if to show the system is busy.

I'm on the latest version of the driver for my hardware. Now, I am unable to use my fingerprint as my password.

The only way I knew to prevent this was to turn off my biometric from the Device Manager.

So I'm more able to make use of my material, even if its there on my laptop.

Please help me.

HP Simple pass seems to work, but the problem is that whenever the biometrics is selected, the mouse pointer continues to flicker.

Hi @Ashkal052,

Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A place where you can find solutions for your problems with the help of the community!

I stumbled upon your post on the laptop and wanted to help you! I looked in your question about your m6 HP ENVY Notebook and questions with the Simplepass works not properly. I suggest you uninstall fingerprint driver or reinstall the version updated driver and HP SimplePass ultimate installed and reinstalled the latest version for Windows. Here is a download for the reader of fingerprints for Windows 10. This download sp71729.exe should work for you.

Please let me know how it goes.

Thank you.

    Hello

    Yes.  MY problem is solved.  Company and I got the replacement unit successfully.

    However, if the activation of the license is not a problem for you then unit replacement is better.

  • DV6 - 6153cl drivers for biometric devices missing after system restore

    Hello

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 - 6153cl Entertainment PC with Windows 7. I used the fingerprint reader, since I have my laptop. The scanner has stopped working.

    Background: two weeks ago, I downloaded the latest version of Norton 360 (Version 21.1.1.7), which caused my laptop to keep crashing every few hours. After much time consulting technical support, I did a system restore to a few days before the new version download then downloaded the version of Norton 360 and active. This solves the problem of crash.

    Problem: After restoring the system, my fingerprint reader no longer works. By control panel > all Control Panel items > biometric devices, "Windows do not have the biometric devices on this computer. You will need to attach your device or install device drivers. "Can someone tell me what are the correct drivers that I need and where to find them?

    Thanks for your help!

    Hello

    First of all, download and reinstall the driver Validity Sensor on the following link.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp55001-55500/sp55109.exe

    Once completed, restart the laptop.

    If it still not works, you may also need to reinstall HP SimplePass on the link below.

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp54501-55000/sp54680.exe

    Yet, when it has installed, restart the laptop.

    • First of all, try this easy fix that can actually work:

    Laptops - forced Reset to solve Hardware and Software questions waterproof Non-removable battery

    Laptops - use Hard Reset to solve Hardware and Software issues - removable battery

    =====================================================================================

    • After the reset, if this does not work by itself, do try and uninstall the driver again, so it can reinstall at startup:

    Reinstall the current validity sensor driver:

    • Control Panel > display icon > device management > biometric devices > Validity Sensor >
    • Right click on the driver Validity Sensor and "Uninstall" (do not remove IT)
    • Restart / reboot the computer and log in
    • The driver will reinstall it connect you to

  • Impossible to safely remove external USB HDD - ejection of mass storage device problem

    Hello

    I have a 250 toshiba external hard drive. "When I go safely remove device and click on stop, guests me that ' ejection of mass storage device problem and try later.

    Is there a reason for this? As I have heard it is dangerous to pull the cord without stopping it first.

    This happens usually when something is always access to the USB - HDD.
    Yes, it s dangerous to pull on the cable, because you can lose some data and the file system may be damaged. But if you have a situation where you need the drive to take with you and want to just get out the cable to the USB port there is a little trick to disconnect the security apparatus:

    Do right click on 'My Computer'-> click on Hardware-> click "devicemanager"-> go into "diskdrives"-> then you need to click on the drive that is your USB - HDD-> with the right button and then click on 'Properties'-> in the menu properties of this drive, you must go on "policies" and click on "optimize for quick removal"-> and then click OK and exit this menu and all-> perform a reboot-> closing information fact. :)

    After that, it s safe for remove you your drive even if it s not ejected. :)

  • EliteBook 840 G1: Validity Sensor fingerprint reader is not listed in biometric devices

    I received an Elitebook 840 G1, tried to turn on the fingerprint reader, but it was not acknowledged.
    Control Panel/biometrics devices, there is no device, although the "Validity Sensor" Device Manager is listed, the pilot seems too. I installed HP ProtectTools Security Manager, where I can find the footprints of the option, but to logon Windows is always Username/Password the only option to log on the system.
    Check the BIOS, fingerprint logon is enabled. Tried to uninstall Validity Sensor and then reinstall it, didn't work.

    OS: Win7 (x 64)

    Thank you in advance!

    See you soon,.

    In the meantime, I found the solution:

    I've updated HP Client (sp63509) Security Manager, opened the program, registered my fingerprints and checked 'Windows logon security' at home/Advanced Settings / Security Features.

    It finally works, I can not connect with my fingerprints.
    (Again, under control panel / biometric devices there is no item listed)

  • Where to get the authentec fingerprint drivers for various computers laptops hp that supports the functionality of the biometric device in windows 7?

    Hello

    We build a Windows 7 SOE for a large company that takes care of many models of computers laptops hp. Each of these laptops comes with a fingerprint reader, and we would like to use the built in support of fingerprint (biometric devices) reader that is running windows 7. The models that we support are as follows:

    • HP 6910P
    • HP 6930p
    • HP 8510w
    • HP 8530w

    We tried using the drivers of fingerprint Authentec (aes2501a) on the hp website, but after the installation, the biometric device option is not in windows 7. We contacted HP about this and they said that we must use the driver coming from windows update before this option appears. After installing the driver from windows update, the option of the biometric device seemed that hp said. Therefore, because of the way that our SOE is built, we demand that the executable that is identical to that on windows update. Anyone know where we can find packages both x 64 and x 86 for this device driver, which are the same as those found when you go to update windows on these machines running windows 7? Let me know if you need any clarification.

    Thank you

    Hi Mustapha ETS.

    Step 1: Locate the stand-alone file by inserting the device model number
    a. visit http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Home.aspx
    in the search box, enter the model number of the perimeter search of the driver.
    c. download the right driver for your windows and install it successfully on all computers.

    Note: If there is no available stand-alone file, I'm afraid you'll have to visit update of Windows on all computers and the installation of the update done or contact the device manufacturer to obtain the driver.

  • External device problem - "YOU NEED of PERMISSION to PERFORM THIS ADMINISTRATIVE TASK" & after I click 'YES' it says "DESTINATION FOLDER ACCESS IS DENIED."

    Original title: external device problem

    Whenever I connect any external devices like pen drive & sdcard, I can't write anything in them, that they are not protected in writing! But I can copy things from them, but I can not cut & paste anything on their part in my system. I can only copy & paste. Whenever I try to write anything he says 'YOU NEED of PERMISSION to PERFORM THIS ADMINISTRATIVE TASK' & after I click 'YES' it says "DESTINATION FOLDER ACCESS IS DENIED." When I tried to format these devices, he says "YOU do not HAVE ENOUGH PERMISSION to PERFORM THIS OPERATION".

    Please help me!

    Sriram salvation,

    Have you tried the suggestions in the previous answer?

    I suggest you to disable the antivirus application and check the status of the issue. Refer to the following steps:

    a: you should see an icon for your Antivirus program in the taskbar notification area. It is usually at the bottom right of your desktop.

    b. click the third-party security software, you will see a pop up.

    (c) in this pop and select the option to disable, click on it.

    d. now third-party security software will be disabled.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Please let us know if you need assistance.
