Fingerprint Single Sign-on Feature
General
The Single Sign-On is a feature that allows the user to complete the
authentication for both the User Password (and optionally, the HDD user
and Supervisor passwords) and logging on to Windows using only one
fingerprint authentication when booting up. It is necessary to register the
User Password and Windows Logon password before using the fingerprint
Pre-OS feature and this fingerprint Single Sign-On feature. Please use
TOSHIBA HW Setup to register your User Password.
Only one fingerprint authentication is required to replace the User
Password (and, if selected, the HDD user and Supervisor passwords) and
Windows Logon password.
