Fingerprint Single Sign-On feature

General

This is a feature that allows the user to complete the authentication for both the User Password (and optionally, the HDD user and Supervisor passwords) and logging on to Windows using only one fingerprint authentication when booting up. It is necessary to register the User Password and Windows Logon password before using the fingerprint Pre- OS feature and this fingerprint Single Sign-On feature. Please use TOSHIBA HW Setup to register your User Password.

Only one fingerprint authentication is required to replace the User Password (and, if selected, the HDD user and Supervisor passwords) and Windows Logon password.
