Any work around?
Drivers for your system, including those for both the fingerprint reader and the security software, are available at your computer's Driver Page.
HP Elite Slice - Software and Drivers
Fingerprint Reader Driver:
Synaptics VFS7552 WBF Touch Fingerprint Driver
Client Security Software:
"Issues" covers a lot of territory ...
Prerequsites are important:
- Windows Updates must be current and installed
Caveat:
IF the issue appeared suddenly after a particular Update was installed > Check the Updates list > Find the culprit Windows Update > Uninstall that Update
- HP Driver Updates must be installed / current
Caveat:
Do NOT allow the HP Support Assistant to install a BIOS update onto your computer. Set the program to "Notify" > read the list > set to "Ignore" any update that mentions the BIOS. BIOS updates must / should be downloaded and installed manually and only after due consideration.
- Windows Hello requires the installation and use of a PIN logon to enable the fingerprint reader. This must be set up before Client Security is added to the "mix".
Windows 10 Sign-in options
PIN assignment is mandatory to enable fingerprint reader.
Windows key > Settings > Account > Sign-in Options > PIN number
- Windows Hello and the Windows fingerprint logon
Help / How-to:
Add or Remove Fingerprint logon - Windows 10
Fingerprint - Add or Remove Fingers in Windows 8.1
- Client Security Prerequsites must be met - open the Driver page for the software > read about and ensure that prequsites are installed / up-to-date.

Assuming you have rebooted the machine after removal and before adding new 'prints...
Interesting -- anytime I have removed all the fingerprints, they do "go away". So.. no help there.
You can certainly try the previous version of the fingerprint Driver.
Click open the Revision History tab on the Driver page.
Client Security also lists a previous version on it's Driver / Software page.
Already mentioned - worth the repeat - ensure your other HP Drivers are up-to-date. For example, at least check the Chipset driver.
If I have anything else to offer, I will post back.
