Windows 11 Latitude 7280

Hello, I recently managed to install windows 11 on my latitude 7280.All drivers are installed without a single failure. Camera and everything working perfectly well including WWAN. Please I can not seem to setup facial/finger print lock. But password and PIN setup is done and fully functional.

Please is there anyone here to assist me on how to resolve this issue?

Check with the manufacturer of the fingerprint reader and camera -- Dell does not support Windows 11 on this model (neither does Microsoft) -- so any driver updates would have to come from the component manufacturers.

If the hardware is working, you may need an updated  utility to use them -- which you likely will never see released, because of the issue mentioned just above.

Re: Please I can not seem to setup facial/finger print lock.

you can attempt download the Dell ControlVault2 driver exe for the finger sensor (Windows 10) and run it in Windows 11 with compatibility mode setup for Win 10, if such an option exists.  No promise it will work but in my ignorant opinion Win 11 in some ways is just another final update of Win 10 in new skin, so there may be a good chance it might work.
