Today we bring you a very useful trick for users who have an Android mobile and use a Windows computer. We can unlock the desktop, without having to put a password, but remotely through the fingerprint of our Android mobile. We teach you to How to unlock Windows PC with Android mobile fingerprint sensor.

Remote Fingerprint unlock: unlock your computer with your fingerprint

Most Windows computers do not include a built-in fingerprint sensor such as security method. Therefore, Google Play, Android and the developers bring us a solution to this. In this way, which we will explain to you below, you will be able to unlock a Windows PC without having to enter any code; simply with your fingerprint and your Android mobile. It should be noted that to make this trick effective we must download a module on your PC (we have done it without problems) and the app on our Android mobile. And now, perform a series of steps. We explain it to you below Step by Step.

• Download the application on your Android device from this link.
• Once downloaded, we download the module for the computer with Windows. The link is the next.
• We click on the previous link from Windows and choose to download the corresponding format. We choose the version: x64 for 64 bits o x86 for Windows installations of 32 bits.
• Once downloaded, it we unzip y we extract on the desktop for example. We already have the module installed.
• Next, press the icon key at the same time. Windows + L. We will see how I know close the session (without turning off).
• Now, with the Windows PC in the previous situation, we enter from our mobile Android to the application fingerprint unlock and we're going to Scan (it's on the burger menu).
• Click on the icon little arrows and he will start looking for the computer. (Remember that the PC must be with the session closed, but without shutting down).
• Now we add the PC, what will come out how "Desktop- xxxx". We only need to go within the application to My Account and we add the windows account with which we have our PC registered.
• Once we register the password, click on Unlock, we put the footprint and we will see how magic! it unlocks our PC.
• We would already have it, now we can unlock it even if we turn it off, and forget about setting the password, start unlocking it with your Android mobile.

When can we use this function

This useful function can be used when we turn off, restart or close session of our Windows PC. Simply, when it is locked and in theory you have to put a password, we enter the application, we press unlock and put the footprint. The requirements are to have an Android mobile with a fingerprint and a PC with Windows Vista, 7, 8 or 10. However, the developer warns us that it is not a 100% foolproof method, which does not promise that it will work in all cases. It has worked for us and surely for most users as well.

It is a relatively simple trick to perform and that we will save putting password sen our PC. In the absence of a fingerprint integrated into the PC, our Android device makes up for this deficiency, which indicates how every time our Android mobile is endowed with more and more functionalities that make our daily lives easier.
