Win7 fingerprint identification settings legend

  
As people pay more and more attention to computer information security, configuring a strong password for Windows accounts is almost a standard configuration for each user, but complex and lengthy password strings are often difficult to remember. The situation of forgotten passwords will seriously affect the user's experience with the computer. The gradual popularization of fingerprint recognition technology provides a new way for user account password management. The computer automatically logs in to the corresponding user account by scanning the user's fingerprint. The Windows 7 operating system provides built-in support for fingerprinting devices, so you no longer need to install third-party applications for the fingerprint reader to implement biometric management of user accounts through the built-in features of Windows 7.
