    title says it all

    i did not remove the start up key from the registry and i can still use my fingerprint to log on during boot, but i have to manually click on my identity each time

    should my fingerpritn authenticate the log on right off the bat?

    you can always add it manually to the startup folder in your Start/Programs menu... or to the Run folder in the registry. Or you can reinstall it.

    Well, English is a second (third?) language for ASUS designers and programmers...

    well i tried reinstalling and its still a no go...i still have to manually launch it and swipe my finger to log on to it as well, i dont see any options in the software to have it auto launch...

    and adding it to start up doesnt seem to take care of the problem either
