"User cancellation or authorisation failed" Win10 up to date** A: If Windows 10 isn't picking up the Fingerprint reader's drivers right away. Go to your Device Manager, locate the "ELAN Fingerprint Sensor" device, right-click and click Update Drivers. Click on "Search automatically for drivers", if none is found, then click on "Search for updated drivers in Windows Update" (wait 2-5 minutes). If still nothing, perform a restart via the start menu (not shutdown), and try the above again, if Windows 10 is still isn't picking up the drivers. Driver version: ELAN Finger Print 3.10.12001.10102 Can confirm working on Windows 10 version 21H2. **Q: does this have a file lock capability, so individual files can be protected on a shared pc?** A: Yes, you can lock/encrypt/decrypt individual files but you need to download & instal the Smart-ID software from the website before you can do this. **Q: Driver unavailable on every usb port tried on a widows 10, alienware m15. suggestions?** A: It doesn't need a driver per se, it will run on a Windows 10 PC that has Windows Hello installed. If there are issues with Windows Hello, go to Start - Settings - Accounts - Sign in Options where it is located. **Q: The device is in the device manager with a yellow triangle (no driver found) Driver is in download folder, tried installing, failed, same with update** A: My recollection is that I plugged it in and Windows figured out the driver itself. It's been a while. I am running Windows 11. At the time I got the device, I was running Windows 10. It seems to work better under Windows 11. I would not be surprised if there were driver problems with versions of Windows before Windows 10. You do not mention what version you are running. If you are running something earlier than Windows 10, I would suggest upgrading. Things have come a long way since the days of Windows 7. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really good for the price *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 7 August 2025* It works really well, Windows 11 recognized it and installed it automatically and it was ready to go. Fingerprint enrolment is easy and recognition is prompt enough and accurate. You need to keep the finger maybe 2s on the reader but I think that's reasonable.My laptop's integrated finger print reader is not any better so I'm guessing the only FP reader possibly quicker than this one would be a Kensington FP reader, but for almost double the price? no thanks.The build of the reader feels solid, made of metal and not some cheap plastic and the FP area is actually really good, bigger than most laptop integrated ones.For the twenty something pounds I paid for it, I'm really happy with the product. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Biometrics in the Security Authentication Field is the future *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 12 January 2024* This is my 2nd device Fingerprint USB Biometric device which works perfectly fine under Microsoft Windows Hello! ++ authentication, which in turn, now allows me to seamlessly login to my desktop and on OATH type application such as password managers and other Applications/Services which normally would have required 2FA or complicated, MFA and use of 2nd devices to use as authentication.Specifically, I estimate the combination of using a fingerprint as a means to validate login credentials & seemless integration into OS's Platform & Apps has speed up the entire process by a number of minites each day, which cumulatively adds up quickly. Best of all, I'm able to drop from my own brain's memory the countless variations of passwords, i had to remember previously used across multiple Devices and WebApps/Domains. This is really one of those "No-brainers" type solutions to a common problem of Keychain management (via pwd manager).Its sturdy design with metal body housing makes this unit feel robust to last many years of repeated, daily usage! Best of all, if for whatever reason the device should malfunction in the future, you have redundant fallback to either PIN/Password/Facial recognition (if enabled on App/OS) to maintain the same levels of security.. This really is a Win/Win! Simple, Fast (0.5ms) & responsive biometric authentication, all whilst maintaining high levels of secured encryption, without complex passwords. I now own 2 of these fingerprint USB devices, One is deployed onto my main BMC Server and the Second is deployed onto my Desktop machine, I will be acquiring a third for my PVE Hypervisor as a replacement for WebAuth / PAM passkey authentication. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Useful USB FP scanner *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 6 June 2025* I needed a USB fingerprint scanner for Windows Hello on my desktop mini PC.The Arcanite device correctly reads my fingerprint about 70% of the time on the first attempt - not bad, but still not as good as my Android phone and my iPad. Windows 11 recognised it straight away and it works well with Windows Hello. Nice bonus is that touching the scanner wakes up my PC from sleep and logs me in in one hit - super convenient when it works. I have setup one finger for my standard user account and a different finger for the admin account, so when Windows asks for the admin password when installing software or changing settings, I can authenticate using my fingerprint. In summary, a pretty good product, about half the price of the Kensington alternative but still a bit overpriced for what it is. ## Frequently Bought Together - ARCANITE USB Fingerprint Reader for Windows 11/10 Hello Desktop, Laptop, 0.05s 360-Degree Sensor Security Device Login, Security Lock - cablecc USB 3.0 Type-A Male to Female Extension Dock Station Docking Cable 0.8m 5Gbps --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/165436928-usb-fingerprint-reader-for-windows-11-10-hello-0-05s](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/165436928-usb-fingerprint-reader-for-windows-11-10-hello-0-05s) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-09-01*
