Customizing Your VAIO Computer
Using Fingerprint Authentication
Your computer may be equipped with a fingerprint sensor to provide you with additional convenience. A small horizontal bar
located between the left and right touch pad buttons is the sensor of the fingerprint reader and will be referred to as the
fingerprint sensor hereinafter.
See the online specifications to find out whether your model is equipped with the fingerprint sensor.
Once you have registered your fingerprint(s), the fingerprint authentication function offers:
❑ A substitute for password entry
❑ Logging onto Windows
If you have registered your fingerprints for your user account, you can substitute fingerprint authentication for
password entry when logging onto Windows.
❑ Power-on Security feature
If you have set the power-on password
, you can substitute fingerprint authentication for password entry
when starting your computer.
❑ Password Bank for quick web site access
You can substitute fingerprint authentication for entering information (user accounts, passwords, etc.) required to access
the password-protected web sites.
❑ File Safe feature to encrypt/decrypt data
With the File Safe feature, you can encrypt files and folder to create an encrypted archive. To decrypt or access such
encrypted archives, you can use the fingerprint authentication or enter the password you specified for encryption.
❑ Application launcher function for quick application access
Once you have assigned an application to your finger, you can then swipe the finger across the fingerprint sensor to
launch the assigned application.
