I added extra security on my laptop by having a boot password and fingerprint
It was all working fine till few days back as I almost always logged in with my fingerprint scan
Now both the password and finger scan are not working.
I may have forgotten the password but finger scan must work. The fingerscan sometimes (may be after a 100 attempts or more) works but I am worried. I have updated all bios and drivers and software. some are pending for restart. I am logged into windows right now but what if i am unable to log in again. what can I do.
