# Anmelden per Fingerabdruck

If your system has a supported fingerprint scanner, you can record your fingerprint and use it to log in.

You need administrator privileges to edit user accounts other than your own.

# Record a fingerprint

Before you can log in with your fingerprint, you need to record it so that the system can use it to identify you.

Falls Ihr Finger zu trocken ist, könnte dies Probleme bei der Registrierung Ihres Fingerabdrucks verursachen. Sollte dies der Fall sein, befeuchten Sie Ihren Finger ein wenig, trocknen Sie ihn mit einem sauberen, faserfreien Tuch und probieren Sie es erneut.

You need administrator privileges to edit user accounts other than your own.

Open the Activities overview and start typing Users.

Click on Users to open the panel.

Press on Disabled, nexdt to Fingerprint Login to add a fingerprint for the selected account. If you are adding the fingerprint for a different user, you will first need to Unlock the panel.

Select the finger that you want to use for the fingerprint, then Continue.

Follow the instructions in the dialog and swipe your finger at moderate speed over your fingerprint reader. You should need to swipe your finger at least five times. Once the computer has a good record of your fingerprint, you will see a Done! message.

Select Continue. You will see a confirmation message that your fingerprint was saved successfully. Select Close to finish.

# Check that your fingerprint works

Stellen Sie nun sicher, dass die Anmeldung mit dem Fingerabdruck funktioniert. Wenn Sie einen Fingerabdruck registrieren, können Sie sich trotzdem mit Ihrem Passwort anmelden.

Save any open work, and then log out.

Wählen Sie Ihren Benutzernamen aus der Liste im Anmeldebildschirm. Das Passworteingabefeld erscheint.

Instead of typing your password, you should be able to swipe your finger on the fingerprint reader.
