As I know the nice person(s) at UPEK like to take notice of things posted here, I thought I'd write about a couple of new problems I had with Protector Suite / my fingerprint reader under Windows 7.
-
A new error message appeared today; it was hiding under all other windows so it went unnoticed for a while:
First time I've seen that one, so not an often occurrence.
-
Sometimes after resuming from sleep, my fingerprint reader doesn't function (no feedback when swiping). If I try to restart the Windows Biometric Service, it times-out or something, though after a while things work again.
Perhaps the below message logged by Windows will help. There's also something for the Windows Biometric Service from when I tried to restart it, that's under Bucket ID 1376951512.Source Windows Driver Foundation - User-mode Driver Framework Host Process Summary Driver host process timeout.
