Fingerprint on PC's DELL Windows 10

Hi Franc,

I'm sorry to say the the fingerprint scanner use for Safeguard bitlocker authentication is not supported.

Please take a look at the following article. http://sophos.com/kb/122335

Not supported 

• The SafeGuard Client does not support logon with Microsoft accounts (formally known as Windows Live ID). 
• The SafeGuard Client does not support the new Windows 8 / Windows 10 logon methods like PIN and Picture, MS Hello, Virtual Smartcards, MS Passport, etc.

Hi Bill

thanks very much for the answer,

but there are some things i do not understand, i have read http://sophos.com/kb/122335, and i have read https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/120185 too,

If i understand (i hope) system no support Windows Credentials Provider and so appears Safeguard Authentication Application,

if somehow i have a pc (dell or hp..) with the same Lenovo's Upek or Authentic sensor driver (if possible) and i can install the supported fingerprint software is possible that system work?

or i'm missing something?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Franc,

If you are not using the singer print scanner on the Lenovo hardware this will not be supported.  What you are asking has not been tested by Sophos so I would be unable to comment on this.

Ok 

Thank you
