Points to note about the Fingerprint Utility software

You are able to backup saved fingerprint data and information within the 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 File protection 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.

Windows Logon via Fingerprint Authentication

If required, you are also able to use fingerprint authentication in place of the usual Windows logon process using your username and password.

This method is especially useful where there are many users using the same computer as it removes the need for actual user selection when the system is started.
