Some applications such as browser and password manager also support Windows Hello. Simply plug the FeinTech fingerprint sensor into a free USB slot. You don't need to load any software, Windows Hello already exists. Once the fingerprint sensor has been detected, Windows Hello can be set up. If you unlock the fingerprint sensor or try three times with an unknown fingerprint, Windows can unlock with your password or PIN. Advantages Secure and fast unlocking Password cannot be peeked Ideal for notebooks and corporate computers No manual driver installation required Support for Windows Hello Fingerprint Sensor is already included in Windows 10 and 11. Simply plug in the USB dongle - the driver will be automatically loaded via Windows Update if required. Setup is then done through Windows login options. (Note: The FPS00200 is not suitable for other operating systems. The FPS00201 is supported by Linux fprintd / libfprint.) Fingerprint learning Setup is easy. You can put multiple fingers on your hand in Windows. Or by several people if desired. Small and compact The fingerprint sensor only stands out < 1 cm and can remain permanently plugged in. A laptop still fits in the bag. Review: Good product, but details can be more informative - The FPS00201 is specifically advertised as having Linux compatibility, which it does - sort of.... In Windows 11, the device is recognized automatically and there is no need to download drivers. It works well, is recognized by Windows Hello, and is accurate. In Linux, libfprintd recognizes the device as a swipe sensor and, as a result, it doesn't work as the device itself is a capacitive touch sensor. There are hacks yo libfrintd that can be made to change this behavior, however this breaks the signing on the kernel which is not an option for when running a secured kernel. Purchased specifically for the Linux compatibility, this discovery was a disappointment as it is otherwise a good product. Review: Does not work on Linux - I have tried everything to get this item to work in Debian with Gnome Desktop. It is completely unable to recognise any finger prints after setup. The description needs to be changed as it is misleading. ## Features - USB fingerprint sensor for Windows Hello biometric login: Provides secure authentication without password and protects against unauthorized access. - Built-in driver support for Windows 10/11 x86/x64: No additional software setup required, automatic installation via Windows Update or manually via the Windows Update catalog.

It is completely unable to recognise any finger prints after setup. The description needs to be changed as it is misleading. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ fonctionne sur linux! il faut SWIPE pas juste toucher ! *by S***4 on 30 July 2025* Bon produit, il fonctionne sur windows 10 et surtout sur linux, testé sur Linux Ubuntu 24.02.2 LTS. Sur linux : Cela fonctionne sur linux mais il faut "SWIPE" (= frotter doucement avec le doigt) et non pas just "touch". Sous windows : il faut uniquement faire "un touch" sur la clé. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/594049019-feintech-fps00201-usb-fingerprint-sensor-for-windows-hello-fingerprint-reader](https://www.desertcart.at/products/594049019-feintech-fps00201-usb-fingerprint-sensor-for-windows-hello-fingerprint-reader) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-07-25*
