My Status: I have a Win8.1 system (no Upgrade 1). I have purchased the EgisTec ES603 fingerprint sensor in Amazon. It comes with an installation disk. I have installed the driver and the device is now showing up in the device manager (Geräte Manager in German) without any yellow triangle. So it should work fine.

My Problem: How can I get the Win8.1 fingerprint app running? According to several support articles, one can go to the account page and get the fingerprint option page. This should be a standard Win8.1 feature. But the account apge is only showing the normal login options. ALso when going to the Start Screen and typing fingerprint, the option to go to the Accountinformation is presented (Anmeldeinformation in German). This leads to the same page with login options. But no fingerprint enrollment is possible.

Home » EgisTec ES603 Use the links on this page to download the latest version of EgisTec ES603 drivers. All drivers available for download have been scanned by antivirus program. V570 - bioexcess for windows 10. Lenovo didn't seem to provide drivers for Win 10. I have 2 files: 89fp01w8.exe and g1f813ww.exe in my downloads in a Fingerprint Reader folder, but I don't remember which one is the correct file for the driver. EgisTec has not supported BioExcess for several years, and I don't think they make anything for. I recently purchased a EgisTec ES603 for use with the new windows hello feature and biometric security in windows 10. The 64 bit drivers are easily found however i have a 32 bit tablet and would greatly appreciate if anyone knew where to locate the drivers and directed me there.
- Is the ES603 compatible with the Win8.1 Biometric Framework?
- What needs to be done to get the ES603 working in Win8.1?
- Any links to additional download sites?
Thanks a lot

According to floc Egistec doesn't send the driver to customers beacuse of legal issue with its OEM partners.
Here is the 64-bit driver that supports Windows 10, Windows 8.1, and Windows 7 and supports the Windows Biometric Framework.
In case of dead or expired link: go to the Acer Support website, look for TravelMate P446-M, and download the current version of the
Elantech Touchpad

Try going to the Services (run services.msc) and enable the Windows Biometric Framework.

- It does not appear so at present.
- The main item is the device driver. This allows it to work with certain software. I have version 3.0.15.0 if that is of any help.
As the EgisTec doesn't currently support WBF, your only options are BioExcess, and manufactures re-branding of similar software. BioExcess does work with Win 8.1 successfully. However the lack of WBF means that the third party software is the only option.

Friends, I have an EgisTec ES603 scanner and I managed to get it working through an awkward cocktail of drivers and prayer. I'm happy to share my drivers and instructions.
- Download the ES603 driver here. Excuse my rather arrogant language in the readme, even if I am correct.
- Extract the contents of the 'INF files.zip' file. Right-click the .inf file and select 'install'. This allows Windows to recognise the USB device far enough to permit further driver installations for it.
- Run '2 - Driver Setup.exe'. It's a standard EgisTec driver installer, but will fail without the first step having been satisfied. This explains to Windows fully what the device is.
- Run the Setup in the third zip to link the Driver to Windows' Biometric Framework (WBF). You need this to be able to sign in properly.
- Reboot your machine.
- Sign in as normal and go to your user settings section. In Windows 8 this is through the 'settings' option in the Charms; in Windows 10 it's in the 'All Settings' section of the Action Centre.
- Set up a PIN for your account. I haven't checked in Windows 8, but in Windows 10 you need this to activate 'Windows Hello', which permits use of fingerprints to sign in.
- Enrol your finger prints!
Hope this helps you all.

Check for any sleep mode power options in Control Panel that might seem related. Jack E/NJ

Like which? I looked through the 'Advanced Settings' in Power Settings and couldn't find a related one. I looked for the 'Power Management' tab of the fingerprint sensor driver, but it doesn't have one.

>>>I tried to update the 'EgisTec Touch Fingerprint Sensor' driver, but itsays that 4/13/2017 3.5.3.10 is already the latest driver.>>>
To check if this driver somehow got corrupted, uninstall it from Device Mgr. Then do a cold boot. Let Win10 redetect the sensor & automatically reinstall the driver. Report back with results. Jack E/NJ

Any answers to the above? I am having same problem as forumuser001 and calls to customer support have been fruitless. Is a BIOS upgrade recommended? I notice 1.09 is available and I am running 1.05. Everything else is up to date, especially the biometric driver, ie., 3.5.3.10. Any help would be appreciated!
-
>>>Is a BIOS upgrade recommended? >>>
Absolutely not unless 1.09 specifically states that it addresses this issue. Jack E/NJ

Thanks JackE, yes I am hesitant to do the 'nuclear option' of a bios upgrade without some direct confirmation... what caught my eye was the description says it fixes wake from sleep issues....
-
>>>But it always begins to fail after going into Sleep mode.>>>what caught my eye was the description says it fixes wake from sleep issues.... >>>
If it were mine, I'd consider the fingerprint sleep mode issue an annoyance. And for me, not a very big one. Certainly not worth screwing with my BIOS firmware because of the apparent ease with which these firmware changes can disable or brick a machine or create other even more annoying issues. Maybe someone else in this community will chime in and try to convince me that I'm a wuss and being too timid. But it's ultimately your decision. Jack E/NJ

Yup, you’re preaching to the choir... don’t intend to upgrade the bios until I hear a more-definitive answer from someone. This is simply an annoyance, as you say. Always leaves me scratching my head though when you see so many folks having the same issue, yet Acer and Microsoft can offer no suggestions, or claim they never heard of it...
