USB Fingerprint Reader Fingerprint for Windows10/11, Windows Hello Automatic Driver Installation with 5ft Extension Cable-Windows Password Free Operation

It works, and works well. If you are having issues, change your USB port. If it works, then don't worry about the driver. If your computer is powered down and the red light on the fingerprint reader does not turn off, the USB port is still powered on; you will need to adjust your power settings in the BIOS to power down the USB ports when the machine is off. This will fix the issue of the scanner not working upon boot. As others have said, this is not a swipe reader, so don't swipe across it and expect it to work. Place your finger straight down onto it, and roll it left or right. If it still doesn't read correctly, clean the reader with a dry cloth, and make sure your hands are clean & dry.

Fails to read fingerprint into windows 11 hello. May have to try it 10 times or more. Had trouble inputting my fingerprint into the windows biometric database. It would only detect a line or two on each attempt.

BEWARE, READ UPDATE BELOW! So far so good. I think it is important to note that this is not a swipe fingerprint scanner, you pick up your finger and just place it down on the reader for this one. I had some trouble at first because I did not realize that and was swiping and it was have a lot of trouble. Once I started just placing my finger, it has worked pretty much every time with the occasional misread (maybe once or twice in a week of heavy computer use). For the price, I would say it is pretty solid.I tried really hard to like this thing. It worked reasonably well at first, but the performance has degraded quickly to the point where the product is no longer usable. Of course it happened outside the refund period so they will be able to steal my money.

It worked well for about six months. setup was easy. But then it just stopped working. I had to back to using the keyboard and enter my PIN.

Works with my Windows desktop but it typically takes two attempts to recognize the fingerprint, and sometimes it won't work at all.

I wish I had read the reviews a little more carefully. I bought this to try out at work and got it set up without any issue. I scanned in two different fingers with Windows Hello. So far, so good.Unfortunately, using the fingerprint reader after setup is a frustrating experience. It almost never unlocks the pc and after three attempts I have to enter my pin. It's actually read my fingerprint correctly and unlocked my workstation one out of thirty times. I've even removed my fingerprints in windows and re-setup a couple of times.My built in fingerprint reader, in another system, works flawlessly almost every time. Unfortunately I'm past the return window, so this will probably just go in the trash.

Honestly I don't know what anyone is talking a about.Systems tested: Windows 10 and 11 machines.Both were plug and play without issue and windows hello recognized the device right away.My only complaint is the device itself is a bit light and I might add some weight to the base to hold it down.

While easy to set up it didn't reliably recognize my finger, and it was a low cost solution I wouldn't recommend this. I have since replaced it with the Kensington VeriMar Gen2 USB-A Fingerprint Key Reader, which I have no issues with.
