Cannot change biometric settings

(1/3) > >>

ap1756:
I ran your cleaner and helped my system and my insomnia. It, however, won't let me change biometric settings (greyed out) I'm assuming it's a permissions issue (but I ran the permissions repair module already!) Should I run just permissions repair again, or am I missing something. (The fingerprint log-on no longer works (broken cable on laptop,) I do not need it and I wanted to remove the superfluous fingerprint log-on screen. I removed the bio database folder from System/Win32.

Shane:
Can you post a screen shot of what is greyed out for me so I can see?

Cannot change to Biometrics OFF

Shane:
It shows in the screen Windows wont let you change it because it is managed by a system administrator. Which just means there is a registry key policy that has it enabled :-)

See if this page helps on finding the regkey for it.

I changed the key value to "0" rebooted and still no access to changing biometrics
