Windows logon via fingerprint authentication

In place of the usual Windows logon by ID and password, fingerprint

authentication also allows logon to Windows.
This is especially useful when many users are using the computer, as user

selection can be skipped.

Fingerprint authentication procedure

1. Start up the computer.
2. The Logon Authorization screen is displayed. Choose any of the

enrolled fingers and swipe the fingerprint on the sensor. If

authentication is successful, the user will be logged on to Windows.

The fingerprint authentication uses the same Windows logon ID and

password. If the Windows logon password has not been setup, please

do so before registration.

Up to 30~34 fingerprint patterns can be registered.
