Uninstalling

For security reasons, only system administrators are allowed to uninstall Biometric Logon Server.


Prerequisites for service uninstall

  • Remove all users and groups from any biometric group ("grFastBiometric", "grSmartBiometric" and "grStrongBiometric").

  • Users who were part of the "Fast Logon" and "Smart Logon" groups must do a logon using their fingerprints (and username, in case of the "Smart Logon" method). When they do this, they will be notified by the Biometric Logon Client that they now must log on using their username and a temporary password (that will also be shown in the message). The users must write down this password and immediately log on using the standard Windows logon method. Finally, the users are advised to change their password.


  • Users who were part of the "Strong" group must do a logon using the standard Windows username/password logon method.

If these prerequisites aren't fulfilled the Biometric Logon Server will abort the uninstall process.

Service uninstall

To uninstall Biometric Logon Server, use the Add or Remove Programs applet in the Control Panel and follow the on-screen instructions.
