Toshiba is not liable for any failure or damage that might arise out of the use of this fingerprint recognition software or utility. Points to note about the Fingerprint Utility software You are able to backup saved fingerprint data and information within the PasswordBank by using the Import or Export User Data facility under the fingerprint management software. However, please be aware that any encrypted files cannot be backup within FileSafe using this function - in these instances it is recommended that you backup these files to external media using standard file copy processes. The Encrypting File System (EFS) is a Windows VistaTM feature. If a file is encrypted using EFS, it cannot be encrypted further using the fingerprint authentication function. If both the fingerprint sensor and Trusted Platform Module (TPM) security are used as identification devices, you must install and configure the Infineon TPM Professional package first before you setup and configure the fingerprint utility. Please refer to the TPM (Trusted Platform Module) Installation Guide for further information on the installation and configuration considerations relating to TPM. In the Help File, it is stated that this software's PasswordBank function can be used for managing security relating to the Internet as well as for general applications.
