Welcome to the HP Community --

 

I don't read the language -- I suspect,. based on the familiar looking format in the illustration, that the message is saying that a fingerprint reader is not detected in your system.

 

What? 

Fingerprint sensors of this type -- little "box" -- can be a "real" fingerprint reader OR -- on a computer where there is not a fingerprint reader installed  -- a blank cover plate placed over the hole where a fingerprint reader would be located.

 

True -- from the outside, cover plate and sensor look the same.

 

True - Software cannot help if there is no hardware.

 

Example - Fingerprint Reader - Box type - Check / Verify

NOTE:  This example is also relevant to your keyboard - Maintenance and Service Guide - Page 12
