Received this today for my new laptop. I bought the 16” ASUS VivoBook with the Ryzen 7 top-tier CPU for $399 and the CPU is legit worth every penny, but the downside to the laptop is it doesn’t have a 144Hz display, fingerprint reader, or backlit keyboard.Seeing how cheap this was compared to other hardware I was hesitant, but Kensington is a brand I trust so I took the leap. It installed the needed drivers in Windows 11 Pro immediately on insertion and within two minutes I had it programmed and working for Windows Hello login, Microsoft 365, and OneDrive Personal Drive. Kensington pulled through.I am using it in the USB 2.0 port on the left side of the laptop and when it’s ready to read, it engages the blue light letting you know it’s ready to scan, then turns off as soon as the biometrics pass.It works quickly, even with 2.0 (lower power, why I chose it), and the driver it uses from Windows works well. I didn’t even get a hit for a second/better driver with Iobit DriverBooster Pro, so I am pleased Kensington delivered.It came rattling in the box, which I very much disliked, but it’s a solid component that works well. I recommend. I can’t speak for its longevity, yet, but I will if anything negative happens. No news is good news. Cheers!

Literally plug and play with my Win11 laptop. After reading horror stories from other people having issues with the drivers I was preparing for the worst. But as soon as I plugged in the reader it automatically detected and downloaded the driver. Works flawlessly with Windows Hello and Bitwarden.

Easy troubleshooting:1. This is a security hardware device. It must have direct access to your motherboard. Most laptops have a USB directly attached to the motherboard and do not run through a hub. But the USB ports on the FRONT of your desktop are not attached directly to your motherboard! It's a hub! Therefore this device will not work as it detects the hub as a possible MIM (man in middle attack) and will correctly refuse to work.FIX: Buy a USB cable, run it to the back of the desktop PC and plug the finger reader into the other end, bit of tape to hold it to your table and reboot. Open the "hello" section and add it as you need it.Driver problems: Win11 had problems with this reader. But if you look at the dates on the reviews they are old, years old. It's fixed for 99% of users now and requires nothing more than a reboot.WORST CASE SCENARIO: Driver won't load? Manufacturer website has it all covered. Easy even for non techs.Failed Reads: Usually just moist fingers or read needs cleaning. Glasses cleaning cloths are the best. Do not use cleaning supplies or it may not work again.Hope this helps. I thoughly recommend it! It's got more to offer if you need it and I have not one problem to report.

So I bought this device when I had a windows 10 device. They worked well, no issues. Now on Windows 11, can't get the device to start. I then went to their support pages, found a message (that is still up as of 1/1/2022...) "We are currently testing our software compatibility with Windows 11. Please check back for updates."So I waited a couple months to see if they had worked it out... nothing. So I opened a ticket on 12/17. Got a surprisingly quick reply that indicated the device works on Windows 11 and to follow the manual device installation. Well that didn't work. So I wrote back indicating after several tries, still wouldn't work. They replied again quickly on 12/20/21:"We regret for the inconvenience with Verimark Fingerprint key on Windows 11. We would like to inform you that we will escalate this issue to appropriate department and once we got an update we will get back to you.We appreciate your time and patience."Now on 12/31, I get another update:" We have not heard from you concerning your request for support in the last 14 days since we sent you a response. Consequently, we have changed the status of your request to SOLVED." - with further instructions to re-open the ticket...And of course the "we are testing message" is still on their site as mentioned above.Given built-in finger print readers work with Windows 11, this seems to be a ridiculous scenario with Kensington. But if true, avoid Kensington Verimark Fingerprint reader until they get their driver figured out. If in fact you have it working on Windows 11, feel free to let me know... I like pins as much as the next guy, but as always I prefer to give me windows machines the finger! :)

Pelo que pesquisei na internet, o produto é rápido e seguro.O grande problema é que não é mais compatível com a versão mais nova do Windows. Daí simplesmente não consegui usar.
