One day the fingerprint sensor just decided to stop working. Thought maybe it was a driver issue so I downloaded the latest driver from Acer site but that didn't fix. Also ran "sfm /scannow" and it reported everything in order. I took a look in Device Manager and after enabling "show hidden devices," I found the category Biometric Devies with the Elan WBF Fingerprint sensor greyed out. Windows reports the device as not being connected with a code 45. I'm running Widows 11 Pro, and assuming that the touchpad and sensor are all connected via a single cable. Since the touchpad still works, I'm at a lost re the sensor. Hoping I won't have to take the laptop apart to check cable… anyone know what's going on?
