HP SimplePass BHO broker

"HP SimplePass BHO broker" is needed on my desktop HP Pavilion 500-260ea, running Windows 8.1, and can it be deleted permanently.

At present, it seems to be one of the two programs causing Internet Explorer hang for long periods. The other being "Software Informer" program which I already deleted.

Sincerely, Alan

Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

HP SimplePass BHO broker is part of all of the programs series 8 HP SimplePass fingerprint scanner that allows the user to record the passwords for the new websites digital.

If you are not running a fingerprint reader, it's a mini scanner attached to your desktop PC, then the program is not necessary on your system.

  • How to stop SimplePass ask to remember the web site passwords

    Every time I connect to a web site in Internet Explorer, SimplePass appears asking is that I want to remember the password:

    I have the option to retain connections web site disabled:

    I could ignore it, but SimplePass blocks IE to continue until I answer.

    I am running Windows 8.1 on a new Touchsmart Envy 15 15-j151nr laptop.

    I like to use the fingerprint sensor to log on windows, but I have to disable SimplePass if I can't solve this problem.

    Thank you!

    I managed to find a way to disable the part of eve of SimplePass browser password but keep the possibility to connect to my computer by using the fingerprint reader.

    1. That's assuming you're on Windows 8.1
    2. Go to the desktop
    3. Move your mouse to the bottom left corner until the WIndows logo appears
    4. Right-click on the logo
    5. Select Task Manager from the list
    6. When Task Manager starts, if it's just a small window without tab at the top, click on "More details" in the lower left corner of the screen
    7. Click on the "Startup" tab
    8. You should see a line that says "HP SimplePass request (3)" and many who say "HP SimplePass BHO broker. Right-click on each one and select "disable."
    9. Exit the Task Manager and restart your system.

    Once the system is restarted, you should still be able to connect swyping your finger. But SimplePass is more you will be prompted to save passwords.

    An additional advantage to this, is that IE seems much more responsive.

  • HP Envy 17-N152NA: HP SimplePass Identity Protection software

    Hello

    Not sure what happened to my original post, seems to have been deleted for some reason any...

    Last week, I bought the laptop above, an HP Envy 17 - N152NA, model N9Q54EA, that, according to the specification of the store both the specification on the HP site that the book marks HP SimplePass Identity Protection software, but for some reason mine is not...

    I looked into the Recovery Manager and it does not list even to be reinstalled...

    There the fingerprint reader and biometric option in Device Manager and I can set up a PIN and then installation in the institution even if it is gray because I still have to add a PIN.

    I noticed that I DO NOT biometric options listed in the Panel which, apparently, that should be, or it would appear when the software is installed?

    If I go to the HP support and drivers for the laptop page HP SimplePass Identity Protection software is listed, I just need to download this? Should not be as it appears that 10 Windows will use its own method? or are the incorrect specifications? I suspect not as HP and the store say he has the opportunity and HP show the software to download.

    Thank you and sorry sorry for all the questions and if my original message broke rules...

    Hope you can offer advice (again) on all of the above questions.

    @StuartTunstall,

    The Riddle_Decipher is at your service!

    I understand you had some questions about the HP SimplePass software among others, I saw your Product Details and you are right about it being a part of the package!

    To inform you, you are also right on windows 10 using its own methods of protection as well, but if you like the simple pass, I recommend you to download the interface available here (download the drivers for the fingerprint reader, which should solve the problem).

    Keep me posted!
    Kind regards

  • HP Simplepass allows not more than one fingerprint

    Hi guys,.

    I have a HP ENVY 15-j112tx, I had now since the beginning of this year as a replacement for my TouchSmart from HP ENVY 15 - j009tx which broke down at Christmas. On my j009tx, I was able to attend several fingers, the software looked just like the pictures on the HP site tutorial, to implement simplepass. On this new laptop however, there is no possibility to register more than one finger, I can't seem to find anything in help for it and I don't know how to upgrade or downgrade the software that came with my previous laptop.

    If anyone knows how to get around this problem, I would really appreciate help!

    See you soon

    Hi Krystian,

    I'm fiddling around with a machine of tower that we have here, and I think that I thought about it. Open your Simplepass and go to my settings (the gear icon) and select Edit. Make sure 'use of fingerprinting as my SimplePass' is checked, and select next. You will then be asked to scan a fingert. Once you have saved the impression, it will keep two fingerprints.

  • I broke my screen, and now cannot drag to open it.  I have an alarm that don't go.  I also want to synchronize my phone before I take it buy a new one.  Is it possible to synchronize and watch my calendar for the next few days?

    I broke my screen, and now cannot drag to open it.  I have an alarm that don't go. I can let the battery die I know but I really want to be able to access and examine what are the texts I received today. I think that my ICloud is can be disabled. I also want to synchronize my phone before I take it buy a new one.  Is it possible to synchronize and watch my calendar for the next few days?

    Without entering your access code, it is not possible, unless your time is in iCloud. If this is the case, connect to iCloud.com to check your calendar.

    Good luck.

  • 6 iPhone does not load and the screen broke

    Last week I went to the apple store because my iphone 6 are more charged correctly. This has happened for a while now and it has just stopped working. So I told them that and how I broke the screen during the time it did not work and they tried to do a diagnostic on it that wouldn't work if they sent away for repair. However, Im now be told that I have to pay to get my fixed screen to look inside my phone which makes no sense because you would need to open it anyway. Im still under 1 year warranty and it wouldn't make sense for me to pay to get my fixed screen probably for them to discover the non repairable phones and give me a new phone in any case. What should I do?

    Accidental damage not covered by the warranty, so you must either pay for the replacement of the screen (if that's all that is needed) or pay for an out of warranty replacement.  Whatever it is, if you have an iPhone running once again, you have to pay for repairs or replacement.  Your warranty is voided when you broke the screen.

    Paying Apple for the repair or replacement will be recovering the remainder of your original warranty or provide 90 days of warranty on the repair or replacement, according to the longest period of time.

  • Why you continue to block HP SimplePass?

    Seriously, it's ridiculous that HP SimplePass is considered to be 'dangerous '? You don't just want us to use it!

    [quote] P.S. Softexinc has a system of support. I asked them if it was signed - we'll see what they come back with. /quote

    Maybe I was lax in not related information. Softexinc (the provider of the software) responded to my support request and indicated that they sent a new version of Simplepass to HP, which is the owner. It's HP to find the time to check the add-on with Mozilla, they say.

    As the update of January the end of Firefox did NOT prevent the effectiveness of the work around, I had not given any thought. SimplePass working on my latest and greatest Firefox (despite the threat of arrest him.)

    The only thing I noticed when the last update came was that I had to disable/enable Simplepass so he could start working.

  • HP Simplepass stopped automatically begin after the last update 40.0

  • Update worm 30 does not my HP SimplePass (password fingerprint reader) to Invoke

    Aargh... Just discovered another problem with this worm update. 30 my SimplePass (HP program, not an Add on Firefox) does not work. When I go to a site that requires a password, SimplePass opens and asks me to drag my fingerprint reader... I'd really like to get this working again... It still works on Internet Explorer...

    I'd appreciate any help, thank YOU!

    Firefox 30 switched many plugins "Always turned on" to "ask to activate. This change was to require your permission to untrusted sites to use plugins. However, some plugins like HP SimplePass affect the user interface, so that they do not work well with this setting. Here's how to switch back:

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Look for the plugin SimplePass and change to ' activate ' "always enable".

    It may not take effect immediately in the current window, but should work in a new window, or after you exit and then restart Firefox.

    Does it work?

  • The latest version of Firefox is compatible with HP Simplepass?
