Using the fingerprint reader

Depending on the model, your computer might have a fingerprint reader. Fingerprint authentication can
replace your Windows password. In this way, you can log in to your computer simply and securely. To
enable fingerprint authentication, enroll your fingerprints first.
Enrolling your fingerprints
It is recommended that you enroll more than one fingerprint in case of any injuries to your fingers. To
enroll your fingerprints, do the following:
• For Windows 7
1. Start the fingerprint program. For instructions on how to start the fingerprint program, see "Lenovo
programs" on page 11.
2. Enter the Windows password as required.
3. Follow the instructions on the screen to finish the enrollment.
For more information on how to use the fingerprint reader, refer to the help system of the fingerprint
program.
• For Windows 10
1. Open the Start menu and then click Settings. If Settings is not displayed, click All apps to display all
programs, and then click Settings ➙ Accounts ➙ Sign-in options.
