If your system has a fingerprint scanner, you can record your fingerprint and use it to log in. You must have administrative privileges to perform these steps.

+ + +

Select your user name in the upper right-hand corner, then choose "My Account".

+
+ +

Unlock your account using the "Unlock" button at the bottom left of the User Accounts tool.

+
+ +

Enter your password at the prompt.

+
+ +

Select the "Disabled" option next to "Fingerprint Login".

+
+ +

Select an option for the fingerprint you want to register. You may choose your right index finger, your left index finger, or a different finger. Then select "Forward".

+
+ +

Swipe the finger you selected three times at moderate speed over your fingerprint reader. Each time the fingerprint reader recognizes your fingerprint properly, the corresponding picture of a hand will transform into a picture of a fingerprint with a check mark. After the third swipe, you will see the message "Done!"

+
+ +

Select "Forward". You will see a confirmation message that your fingerprint was saved successfully. Select "Close" to finish.

+
+
+ +

If you register a fingerprint, you still have the option to log in with your password.
