Dell Latitude – enable biometric/fingerprint on Windows 8.1 and Authentec AES28XX

May 23rd, 2014 Leave a comment Go to comments

I used Dell Latitude E5520 laptop and Windows 8.1 is not supported on it. Dell Support site has not driver available. Terrible, but…

Used these steps to enable fingerprint authorization.

First simple way — Download and install Dell Data Protection | Security Tools Application (I found it for Latitude E5540 model). The software has all needed drivers and frameworks.

One disadvantage of DDP|ST for me – it’s big enterprise software. A lot of security features, high security etc… But they not needed for me. But, it’s great because it enabled fingerprint framework on my Windows 8.1 and installed Authentec driver 🙂

So, I un-installed DDP|ST and configured fingerprint authentication in Windows: PC Settings -> Accounts -> Sign in options.
