(Figure 3.Let’s learn the PIN Complexity Settings in Windows 11. In addition, be sure to check “Remember my choice” so that the USB fingerprint reader will be correctly connected to the VM when Windows reboots. The fingerprint reader must be connected only to the VM, and not shared with the Mac. You can read more about this in the Knowledge Base article about vTPM chips. In addition, if you later remove that vTPM chip, the VM may fail to boot on any Mac. So, why is the “Are you sure…?” dialog before a vTPM chip added? Once a vTPM chip has been added to a VM, that VM won’t work on any other Mac. ( See the next paragraph about this dialog.) When you click on the “Add” button, you will see that a TPM Chip has been added in the list of virtualized hardware of this VM. At the bottom of the list of hardware in your VM, click on the “+” sign and choose “TPM Chip”. To add vTPM to an existing VM, shut down the VM and open its Configuration window and click on the Hardware tab. The vTPM support is not enabled by default in a new VM. Parallels Desktop implements support for TPM with a virtual TPM (vTPM), an advanced feature in Parallels Desktop Pro Edition and Parallels Desktop Business Edition. On a PC, TPM is a hardware component that is used to implement security-related features like BitLocker and Secure Boot. Setting up TPM is a little trickier and has some significant implications for your VM. You can accomplish these first two tasks from the Sign-in options window shown in Figure 1.įigure 1_The options available in Windows Hello If you haven’t already created a real password, you will need to do so now. When you first setup a VM in Parallels® Desktop, the VM is configured with the same username as on your Mac and a blank password. To use fingerprint recognition, you need the following set up in your VM: Windows Hello includes support for passwords, PINs, and advanced features like facial and fingerprint recognition, and security keys. The group of technologies used to sign in to Windows is called Windows Hello.
Get your VM ready to use the USB fingerprint reader The current price for this reader is $40.
I did have success using another reader that is featured in the above video 1: PQI My Lockey Mini USB Fingerprint Reader for Windows 7, 8 & 10). I tried to use one fingerprint reader on three different computers but it did not work for me on any of them. I wish I could tell you that any fingerprint reader will work, but that is unfortunately not the case. Here are steps to get the same result for your Windows 10 VM: 1.
