HP Probook 5330m
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi! Recently, I installed Windows 10 64x on my HP Probook 5330m. Some of the drivers I installed were not compatible. The results were:

 

1: Fingerprint reader not working

2: HP Protect Tools not working - After I installed it, the Windows login screen starts flashing and freezes. No password, no fingerprint reader there. Just flashes and a blank screen. (Compatibility issue, I think) I have to install a new windows after that.

3: And some other minor problems

 

Previously, I had Windows 7 64 bit and everything was working fine on it. Three options were there to log in on the login screen (Password, face detection, and fingerprint). What should I do? Love windows 10 and doesn't want to go back to 7.

 

I just wanted to ask, is there any alternative or compatible software like HP ProtectTools? Can you provide a fix for it? Thanks!
