Hi,
how about:

Identifying your laptop with a system SKU or specific Product name. That is critical information to provide here.

SureStart

  1. turn on or restart the computer.
  2. Press F10 to enter the BIOS Setup.
  3. Select Security.
  4. Locate BIOS Sure Start.
  5. Uncheck Sure Start BIOS Settings Protection.
  6. Click Save to save the changes and exit HP Computer Setup.

 

Fingerprint sensor

Enter the BIOS to ensure that the fingerprint sensor is enabled and then reinstall the Elan fingerprint sensor driver and set it up.
