Since I got rid of my Microsoft Fingerprint Reader years ago I started off by getting the K-Byte Biometric Fingerprint Scanner from Amazon which cost just $11 and had free shipping with my Prime membership. In fact, I plugged my fingerprint scanner into Windows 10 build 10122 and it shows the option to setup a fingerprint for logging in but the setup failed due to a supposed policy restriction which I need to research further. Windows 10 build 10125, the current leaked build, has the Windows Hello dialogs available under Settings>Accounts>Sign-in options but according to info I have seen the fingerprint scanning works in earlier builds of Windows 10 as well. All it takes is a compatible fingerprint scanner and Windows 10. Windows Hello’s facial recognition and iris scanning is still a few months away because of the hardware it will require but you can already put the fingerprint scanning to use in Windows 10.
Windows Hello and Microsoft Passport will provide options to use facial recognition, iris scanning and fingerprints to validate your identity and subsequently grant access to the OS and your documents. Microsoft intends for Windows 10 to be one of the most secure version of Windows ever released.īack in March of this year they announced two features for the upcoming operating system that would add physical security to your Windows 10 devices using state of the art biometrics.
