Toshiba Tecra A50-A - Manual (Page 61)

Overview about Fingerprint Single Sign-On feature
This is a feature that allows the user to complete the authentication for both
the User/BIOS Password (and, if applicable, the HDD/SSD Password) and
logging onto Windows using only one fingerprint authentication when
booting up.
It is necessary to register the User/BIOS Password and Windows Logon
Password before using the Fingerprint Pre-Boot authentication and this
Fingerprint Single Sign-On Feature. Please use the TOSHIBA Password
Utility to register your User/BIOS Password. If Windows Logon is not the
default for your system, see Manual to register your Windows Logon
Password.
Only one fingerprint authentication is required to replace the User/BIOS
Password (and, if applicable, the HDD/SSD Password) and the Windows
Logon Password.
How to Enable Fingerprint Pre-Boot authentication and
Single Sign-On feature
It is necessary to first enroll your fingerprint with the TOSHIBA Fingerprint
Utility prior to enabling and configuring the Pre-Boot authentication and
Single Sign-On feature. You should check that your fingerprint is enrolled
before configuring the settings.
