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 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 the Windows Logon Password.
How to Enable Fingerprint Single Sign-on Feature
It is necessary to first enroll your fingerprint with the Protector Suite QL
application prior to enabling and configuring the Fingerprint Single Sign-on
feature. You should check that your fingerprint is enrolled before
configuring the settings (please refer to the Manual for Fingerprint
Registration/Enrollment for further instructions).
1. Swipe your finger across the fingerprint sensor.
2. MENU will appear in the lower right corner of the screen. Swipe your

Fingerprint utility limitations
TOSHIBA does not guarantee that the fingerprint utility technology will be
completely secure or error-free, or that it will accurately screen out

damage that might arise out of the use of the fingerprint software.

The fingerprint sensor compares and analyzes the unique
characteristics in a fingerprint. However, there may be instances where
certain users are unable to register their fingerprints due to insufficient
unique characteristics in their fingerprints.

The recognition success rate may differ from user to user.
