Fingerprint reader
I have an Inspiron 5593. Do I have a fingerprint reader? Can I install a fingerprint reader? I am out of USB ports if this is required. References to pictures, item numbers appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome to the Dell Community @cambridge02139
The power button is where the fingerprint scanner would be.

The part is this one:

Be sure you carefully review the procedure for removing the palmrest -- basically you have to tear the system to pieces to access the keyboard. Also note that if the system is under warranty, any damage you cause in the process will not be covered. Everything in the system has to be removed, including the system board to access the underside of the palmrest.

OK I’ve determined I don’t have the optional fingerprint scanner. How do I get one?
