Fingerprint Reader for Desktop (Windows/Linux)
Hi all. I'm looking to get a USB fingerprint reader for my desktop that dual boots Windows/Linux. Any recommendations for the best one that will work with Windows Hello, and also unlock 1Password? Any suggestions would be welcome. Thank you!

Hello jfbilletts,
Thanks for your message and question about a fingerprint reader. I don't have any specific recommendations as we typically use the readers built into our work devices, but any reader that supports Windows Hello/Linux should work just fine to unlock 1Password!
I'll include guides below for both OS's below:
* Use Windows Hello to unlock 1Password on your Windows PC
* Use system authentication to unlock 1Password on your Linux computerOnce you've installed a reader, please let us know if you have any further troubles with those guides and getting things set up!
