Fingerprint Single Sign-On Feature
General
This is a feature that allows the user to complete the authentication for both
the User/BIOS Password (and optionally, the HDD 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 Power-on Security 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 selected, the HDD Password) and the Windows Logon
Password.
■ It is necessary to register the User Password before using the
Fingerprint Power-on Security and its extended function, the
Fingerprint Single Sign-On Feature. Please use TOSHIBA Password
Utility to register the User Password.
■ If you fail fingerprint authentication more than five times, you must
enter the User Password or Supervisor Password manually to start the
computer.
■ When swiping, please do it slowly and at a constant speed. If this does
not improve the authentication rate, please adjust the speed.
■ If there are any changes in the environment or settings related to
authorization, you will be required to provide authorization information
such as the User/BIOS Password and the HDD Password.
