5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Yoidesu USB C Fingerprint Reader, refer to the following common solutions:

5.1. Device Not Recognized or Driver Issues

• Check Connection: Ensure the fingerprint reader is securely plugged into a functional USB-C port.
• Reinstall Drivers: If the device is not recognized or shows an error in Device Manager, try reinstalling the drivers using either the automatic or manual method described in Section 2.1.
• Windows Update: Ensure your Windows operating system is up to date, as this often includes necessary driver updates.

5.2. Fingerprint Registration or Login Failure

• Clean Sensor: Ensure the fingerprint sensor and your finger are clean and dry.
• Full Finger Coverage: During registration, make sure to swipe your finger across the sensor completely and from different angles as prompted.
• Administrator User Limitation: Windows Hello may not support running under a direct Administrator user account, especially with pirated software or certain system configurations (e.g., 'Go House' systems). If you are using such a setup, you may need to create a standard local user account to use Windows Hello fingerprint login.
