Hi Support,

I am using Windows 11 professional operating system.

User account are connected with our Domain name server (Active Directory server)

I am able to login the user account name with our domain name without any issue.

The issue is that i am not able to use fingerprint in the laptop because it is connected with our domain account name.

Fingerprint recognition (Windows Hello) shows " This option is currently Unavailable"

Facial recognition (Windows Hello) shows " This option is currently unavailable"

PIN (Windows Hello) shows " This option is currently unavailable"

How to resolve the fingerprint recognition.

Your immediate reply and response are highly appreciated.

Thanks

    Hi Pradeep. I'm Greg, 10 years awarded Windows MVP, here to help you.

    Please ask server questions at our Sister forums for IT Professionals, Q&A forums here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-US/answers/index.... as Microsoft Community is strictly an end-consumer forum.

    Solutions we give here will conflict with Group Policy which is not used in consumer Windows at all.

    There are also equally good (and sometimes busier) IT Pro forums here:

    I hope it helps.

    Hello,

    Try these steps:

    1. Open Registry Editor.
    2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System.
    3. Set AllowDomainPINLogon to 1.
    4. Close Registry Editor and reboot your system.

    Hope this helps!

    P.S. Create System Restore point before above steps, if you're new to registry.

    Add the key yourself. The key should be under Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System

    Type: REG_DWORD

    Data: Hexadecimal

    More awarded, instead of giving some useless links, you could give the man the solution, if you knew it. So, you just took care of yourself and didn't help with anything at all.
