    Because the link provided down below doesn't contain the specified driver, I found a way to still download it, using the archive website to go to a date where the driver was still available:
    Her's the link :
    web.archive.or...
    In this video I'll show you how to fix and enable the fingerprint scanner on HP laptops using windows hello instead of HP simplepass/protect tools.
    If this method doesn't work for you, just let me know and I will suggest other methods depending on your laptop and OS.

    IT WORKS!! at first, I was like “nah, it won’t work because my issue and yours are not the same.” still, I did follow the step, and finally, finally, after watching some tutorials, yours is the only one that works. thanks again!

    Awesome! After deleting the default driver and then restarting my HP ProBook, the Synaptics driver just appeared as a biometric device without me ever downloading it. It didn't even go through the install process and it NOT a hidden device. My fingerprints are now loaded. Thank you SO much!

    Thanks for explaining it nice a slow unlike like some speed demons out there where there's no audio explanations and all you see is a cursor at warp speed.

  • @simplybeanjelly

    It freaking worked!!!!!! Thanks so much! I have an HP Pavilion dv6 and I have literally never used the fingerprint sensor since it was updated from windows 7 to windows 10. While the steps didn't work as smoothly as they did in your video it does work!! What was happening to me was that when I uninstalled the driver it would just reinstall every time I restarted the computer or let it sit for a few minutes, so I had to do some research and I found out that I had to install one of microsoft's tools called hide or show windows updates and once I hid the update that it detected I was able to uninstall the driver completely and install the new one. Then all I had to do was install the driver then go to the windows update and security settings and check for updates and after it installed an update to the driver it worked with windows hello! Funnily enough, this 9 year old laptop has a better fingerprint sensor than my 3 year old phone! XD

    I Tried
    1. Uninstalling & Re-Installing drivers
    2. Windows 10 clean install
    3. Registries
    4. Group policy
    5. Services
    6. Every solution provided on Microsoft support forum
    7. Other methods available on many sites.
    Really need help with this one :(

If that doesn't work, I'm sorry, but it worked for me.

    Found out on how on nearly every HP laptop with fingerprint readers can allow you to install the driver.
    Just follow the video and when your PC have Microsoft basic validity sensor installed. Just update your driver and then "browse my computer for driver software" then "let me pick from a list", uncheck "show compatible hardware" find "synaptic to sensors" then click next. Finally click yes.
