Welcome to the HP Community --

 

Your system must have an IR type camera to use with facial recognition login.

 

The specs say the IR camera is an optional purchase / feature in this series.

Thanks for the assist.  MY camera is not IR, so no face recognition not all bad. 

My real problem was that the shutter to protect the camera lens had been moved across.  I wasn't aware there was a shutter I read one of the articles attached to your post, Now I know so alls good

 

Thanks again for your input

You are welcome.

 

Facial Rec is a nice feature.  That said, we all managed to live for most of our lives without a camera in our face telling us to get closer, uncover the lens, increase the light, take off our headphones, remove our glasses...  Smiling.
