On startup my laptop doesn't even give me the option to log in my computer by use of my fingerprint. How can I fix this? I've been running through removing some programs I didn't think were necessary... did I accidently delete the fingerprint program?

Thanks,

Steve

I would think that you have removed the fingerprint software.
To reload it, you'll have to visit the manufacturer's website.
If you can't locate the proper software, post back with the exact make and model of your laptop and we'll see what we can find.

Alrighty I found this page:

Toshiba Satellite Webpage

It has all the programs that come with my computer... or what they will allow me to download anyway. Do you know which program I need?
