Operating Basics Windows logon via fingerprint authentication In place of the usual Windows logon by ID and password, fingerprint authentication also allows logon to Windows. This is especially useful when many users are using the computer, as user selection can be skipped. Fingerprint authentication procedure 1. Start up the computer. 2. The Logon Authorization screen is displayed. Choose any of the enrolled fingers and swipe the fingerprint on the sensor. If authentication is successful, the user will be logged on to Windows. ■ If the fingerprint authentication fails, please logon using the Windows logon password. ■ Please logon using the Windows logon password if the fingerprint authentication fails for five times. To logon using the Windows logon password, enter the Windows logon password at the [Welcome] screen. ■ A warning message will be displayed when authentication is abnormal or authentication is not successful within a fixed duration. Fingerprint system boot authentication General The fingerprint authentication system can be used to replace the keyboard based User Password authentication system when booting up. If you prefer to use the keyboard-based system instead of the fingerprint authentication system for password authentication when booting up, press the BACK SPACE key when the Fingerprint System Boot Authentication screen is displayed. This will switch the password input screen to the keyboard-based one. ■ It is necessary to register the User Password before using the fingerprint Pre-OS feature and its extended function, the fingerprint Single Sign-On feature. Please use TOSHIBA HW Setup 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 a User Password and HDD password.
