Hallo, since a few day i am a owner from a HP8570W refurbishd EliteBook. This System was clear from any software and drivers. So i install Win7 64 and all the drivers from the HP Downloadcenter for this book. Just now i want install the protect tools, but i does not found the files. Can i use another file or anything other tool for use the fingerprint sensor ?

Hi:
Yes you can try the HP Client Security Manager software, which superceded the HP Protect Tools software...
HP Client Security Manager provides enhanced Windows login and website single-sign-on capabilities. Security Manager is also the host for HP Client Security plugins, and therefore, should be installed before other Client Security modules. This package is provided for supported computer models that are running a supported operating system.

But if you meant that you can't find the ProtectTools software, you can get it at the link below...

Hello @Watersports
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
A great choice of a computer you have made - Elitebooks are my favourite.
Protect Tools is the previous version of the newer Client Security.
- You can download Protect Tools from here >> https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/swdetails/hp-elitebook-8570w-mobile-workstation/525...
- I recommend you the newer version, thought. You can also open the entire list of drivers here >> https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-elitebook-8570w-mobile-workstation/5257502
and select Windows / Windows 7 x64
Concentrate on the Security section (download/run the needed apps) and also on the Validity sensor fingerprint driver
