Driver Installation for Fingerprint Reader in Windows 10

Dell systems that shipped with a fingerprint reader as part of their build may require a firmware/driver update in order to utilize the biometric device in Windows 10.

Systems running Windows 10 are not limited to using the Dell Data Protection- Security Tools in order to utilize the biometric device. The User may choose to use the native Microsoft software solution known as "Windows Hello" to access the Fingerprint device.

NOTE: Dell Data Protection Security Tools and Windows Hello cannot be configured for Biometrics simultaneously. Only one or the other may be configured. If fingerprints are enrolled in Dell Data Protection Security Tools and Windows Hello, Biometrics login will fail. Once fingerprints are removed from Dell Data Protection Security Tools or Windows Hello, login should work normally.
 
NOTE: To configure and enroll fingerprints, the system must have access to the TPM.  Enabling and configuring the TPM is covered in system-specific documentation. To configure Windows Hello, the system must meet hardware and software requirements. Windows Hello supported systems can be found here.
