Introduction

Utilities and Applications

This section describes the pre-installed utilities that come with the

computer and details how to start them. For further information on their

operation, please refer to each utility's online manual, help files or

README.TXT file.

Fingerprint Utility

Some models of this computer series support a

fingerprint utility, which is installed for the

purpose of enrolling and recognizing fingerprints

which can then be linked to a username and

password in order to remove the need to input

these details from the keyboard. Just by swiping

an enrolled finger against the fingerprint sensor,

the following functions will be enabled:

Logon to Windows and access a security

enabled homepage through Internet Explorer.

Files and folders can be encrypted/decrypted

and third party access to them is prevented.

Disable the password-protected screen-saver

when returning from a power-saving mode

such as Sleep Mode.

Authentication of the User Password (and, if

applicable, the HDD (Hard Disk Drive)

Password) when booting up the computer

(Power-on Security).

Single-Swipe Sign On feature

Fingerprint security cannot be used in models that do not have a

fingerprint module installed.

Bluetooth Stack for

Windows by Toshiba

This software enables communication between

the computer and external Bluetooth devices

such as printers and mobile phones.

Bluetooth functions cannot be used in models that do not have a Bluetooth

module installed.

TOSHIBA Assist

TOSHIBA Assist is a graphical user interface that

provides access to specific tools, utilities and

applications that make the use and configuration

of the computer easier.
