I found the solution to this problem after a lot of work.
I went to the Device Manager and uninstalled completely, the pilot of the validity and the parameters. Then I opened my control panel and navigated to the list of programs, uninstall a program.
I uninstalled the program called 'validity WBF DDK" completely.
Then, I downloaded the driver for validity from the link:
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp53001-53500/sp53369.exe
I installed the driver of validity first, and I chose 'Yes' when he was asked to replace all the other data that was there.
After that, I rebooted my computer and connected. (with password)
Then
- Open Settings on Windows 10.
- Click on Accounts.
- Click on Sign-in options.
- Under the “Manage how you sign in to your device” section, select the Windows Hello Fingerprint option.
- Click the Set up button. Set up Windows Hello Fingerprint
Click the Set up button.
(other steps is straight forward... )
Thanks God, it worked.
I hope this helps if you have the same problem, I've had.
