Using Your VAIO Computer

Logging Onto Your System

To use the fingerprint authentication functionality in place of password entry to log onto your system, you need to set the power-on and Windows passwords and configure your computer for fingerprint authentication.

For setting the power-on password, see Setting the Password (page 141).

To log onto Windows

If your fingerprints are enrolled for your user account, you will be able to substitute fingerprint recognition for password entry when logging on to Windows.

1Swipe the finger with the enrolled fingerprint across the fingerprint sensor when the Windows log-on window appears. Window is launched.

You can log onto to your user account just by swiping the finger with the enrolled fingerprint even if your computer is shared by multiple users.
