I bought two from Amazon, used a week and the Kensington finger print reader became very inaccurate to read the finger and required to reset again and again. I returned it and bought another set of two different brand. The Kensington Verimark is touch to read fingerprint. The one I bought secondly is touch & swipe (this brand DDSKY) ...work quiet, well accurate well for now! (I do not want to spend $70 for the Kensington desk fingerprint reader!)
My laptop already has built-in fingerprint reader. But it's located under a lid, so, I need every time open the lid to scan my fingerprint. So, I've bought this USB Kensington model but when I plugged it in - nothing happened. It doesn't do anything when I put/press my finger on it. Does Windows Hello even allow to have 2 fingerprint readers in the system or my Kensington unit is broken?
Hi, mine does not want to work in windows 11 home, it marks the driver as installed but when I go to finger print to set it up it says something went wrong, the drivers I downloaded on kensington webpage works well on win 10 thoug...some sugestion?
Might be worth uninstalling the driver and then installing the manual driver on the website: www.kensington.com/en-gb/software/verimark-setup/verimark-setup-guide/
@@EclipseReviews hey bro, how di you get it to work in win11? in win10 it's plug and play but in windows 11 it does not work even when I install the driver.

What brands did you use?
@@brucewayne2955 Generic brand with chipset named "FocalTech Fingerprint Reader" which works very well than the Kensington VeriMark
can you use the fingerprint for passwords on the web aswell...
What is the difference between Gen 1 and Gen 2?

What happens after you set it all up & you pull out the fingerprint reader? Does it ask to sign into Windows with your password?
No. It will only ask for your Windows with your password after it does not recognize your fingerprint after 3 failed attempts.

Very useful video. Thank you!
Is this a usb c or usb b 2/3
does it look like usb c, bro? It's a USB 2.0 (as stated in the video)
may add more emotion in the video :)
