Same here with Inspiron . I already try to remove and add the device, but it still doesn't work. Maybe a bios downgrade,but I will wait for a solution Dell side.
Same issue after this BIOS update for my Inspiron 5482 2-in-1.
<ADMIN NOTE: Broken link has been removed from this post by Dell>
Attempting to install the Intel Software Guard Extensions complains about the BIOS not supporting Intel SGX. Confirmed in BIOS that Intel SGX is set to enabled. Tried Software Controlled as well and along with Disabled. Nothing makes a difference.
Downgraded to BIOS 2.2.0. Intel SGX set to enabled, still cannot properly install Intel SGX. Reinstalled Windows on 2.2.0, working fine.
Upgraded to BIOS 2.3.0, broken Fingerprint reader again. Same issues about Intel SGX not being enabled.
Clean installed Windows on 2.3.0, issue remains, cannot install Intel SGX.
Did anyone at Dell test this basic functionality before rolling this out? Now anyone that updates to BIOS 2.3.0 is **bleep** in regards to the fingerprint sensor.
I have the same problem after updating the BIOS on my brand new Inspiron 5482. The fingerprint scanner no longer works after I updated. This is a BIOS issue and Dell needs to check for basic issues like these before releasing the update.
Exactly the same problem with my Dell 2in1 5482 following BIOS "urgent" update yesterday. I looked in the new BIOS settings and there does not appear to be a setting to enable the fingerprint scanner. DELL needs to find a fix and make this available; users should not need to have to roll back the BIOS.....an update that keeps the functions of the latest one without affecting the fingerprint scanner functionality please DELL!!
The problem is not the driver but the BIOS itself. The 2.3 version is no longer listed on the driver page. Maybe Dell already saw that the BIOS has a problem and pulled it out. Maybe they will release a new version soon... hopefully :Wink:.

Figured I'd pop a message here to say I also face the same issue, though I haven't downgraded bios yet.
Also on a 5482, where the update to 2.3.0 seems to be the issue.

SJD65,
Click the link below to download the drivers for the fingerprint reader. The install instructions are listed on the driver download page.

I did this for my Vostro 5581 but no luck. I downloaded the driver from this page:
No changes. We need a hot fix from Dell.
