Does my omen 17 have eye scan option to login

[bin95]

Does my Omen17 have an eye scan login instead of typing a password or pin?

I do not see a fingerprint scanner like my hp laptop two computers ago, so I was wondering does my new Omenn 17 has an eye scan login like my last hp gaming pavilion laptop did.

Hello @bin95 

Sorry to hear that you are having problems ... I would like to help you.

Let me check your basic system configuration before we "focus" on the <camera> ...

(1) Run    msinfo32

- Select <System Summary>:

--->>> Copy/screenshot/paste following key/value pairs:

OS Name

Version

System Model

System SKU ( equals HP product number (p/n) )

Processor

BIOS Version/Date

BaseBoard Product

BaseBoard Version

(2) Start Windows <Device Manager>

- Expand <Other devices> ? (Those entries are for hardware for which Windows has not loaded a suitable driver)

- Expand <Biometric Devices>

- Expand <Cameras>

- Expand <Mice and other pointing devices>

--->>> Send screenshot

(3) Please report your results

Thanks UB6424:

That was an easy way to check, that slipped my mind. I now know the answer is no because there were no biometric drivers, no IR camera drivers, and no extra mouse drivers for say a fingerprint scanner.

So I now know, The HP Omen 17 laptop does NOT come with those hardware secure login devices built in as the cheap HP Gamer Pavillion laptop did. I made the mistake of assuming since my last Pavillion did, of course, the Omen at 3 times the price would have one. My bad

But thanks for pointing me on the right path to realize that.

No, no eye scan, no finger print, no facial recognition.
