Hello, @dany123PT – Greetings!
Thanks for accessing the HP Support Forums for extra support! It is a great platform to get help from the community, get suggestions and find what has worked for others!
I see that you are experiencing issues with the face recognition software with your Envy x360. I will do my best to assist you with this issue 🙂
I would recommend the steps mentioned below to try and fix this issue:
Solution 1 – Turn off Fast Startup;
- Type "power options" in the Search box, and open Power Options.
- Select "Choose what the power buttons do".
- Click on "Change settings that are currently unavailable".
- Uncheck the checkbox next to "Fast Startup".
Solution 2 – Reinstall Windows Hello drivers:
- Go to Search, type device manager, and open Device Manager.
- Find your Windows Hello driver, right-click on it, and select Remove driver software….
- Restart your computer.
- One the next startup, Windows 10 should automatically detect Windows Hello, and install the latest driver for it.
- Once Windows 10 installs the driver again, try running Windows Hello to see if the issue is resolved.
Solution 3 – Run Windows 10 Troubleshooter:
- Go to Search, type troubleshooting, and open Troubleshooting.
- Go to Hardware & sound section of the troubleshooter.
- Now, click on Hardware & devices.
- The troubleshooter will start, so wait for the process to finish, and follow further on-screen instructions.
- If the troubleshooter found a problem with Windows Hello, it will automatically fix it.
- Restart your computer.
Let me know how that goes. Thank you!
Cheers 🙂
