You can use the Valdity Sensor for your system that is rated for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1

 

HP ENVY m6-1216tx Notebook PC

 

Driver:

sp58869 Validity Sensor Driver V4.4.234.0 W8-W8.1/64bit

 

 

You cannot use the old AuthenTec Series 6 (any version 6.x) of the HP SimplePass program with Windows 10.

 

If you want to continue to use HP SimplePass, you must switch to the Softex HP SimplePass program.

 

At writing, the latest (new) version is:

sp76923 HP SimplePass V8.01.62A W7-W10 32/64bit

 

 

NOTE:

  • Series 8 (any version 8.x) of HP SimplePass is NOT an update to Series 6 HP SimplePass
  • The programs are not compatible and cannot be on the computer at the same time
  • There is no conversion program for the Export .tsd file to the Vault .opi (website / passwords backup)

 

Remember that Windows 10 fingerprint logon requires a PIN number.

 

Windows 10 >   Settings > Account > Sign-in Options > PIN number >> PIN assignment is mandatory

  • Windows Hello and the Windows fingerprint logon
