Windows 7 and Fingerprint Sensor in Tecra M7

I found an article on the Windows Team Blog telling me that there's an update available for the UPEK Protector Suite for Windows 7 - my sensor is supported (check here).

The normal setup did apparently nothing - I checked the files it installed, just some drivers - so I ran "update drivers" in the device manager - no effect. Only when you choose "browse my computer" - "let me pick" you get a new entry "TouchChip Fingerprint Coprocessor (WBDI)".

After changing the driver, the protector suite stopped working - but the "Biometric Devices" in the Control Panel (under Hardware and Sound) started working! The status said "Not enrolled", so I had to register my fingerprints. This application though seems to have some problems left, it kills the explorer task sometimes.

Win+L gives the login screen, where I still had two fingerprint icons - one of the Protector Suite, the other of Windows 7. Logging on with my thumb worked immediately.

I uninstalled the Upek Protector Suite 5.8.2, but know I need a new software to save my passwords and fill them in on fingerstroke...
