    Fingerprint Reader Not working with Win7


    I used to use the Fingerprint Reader to login into my account, after installing Win7 (from Vista), finger-swipping is not working or not found as a device.

    Hi dinomon, Welcome to SF,

    Have you install proper drivers for your Finger Print Reader device. If not go to their website. Download the Lastest drives for Windows 7 then install it. See whether it works or not.

    P.S. Please fill the System spec so we know what are we dealing with.

    Hope this helps,

    I found something for you. According to documentation it says that it froms from Windows Update. Anyways i'm giving a link

    AuthenTec Fingerprint Sensor Driver (32-bit and 64-bit) for Windows 7 My Digital Life

    Make sure you create a restore point before you apply the update
