How to Install OFIS Scanner in Windows 8
Microsoft’s latest operating system Windows 8 not only
encourages us to use Digitally Signed Drivers, but it also checks to see if the
driver has been modified. If the driver has been modified, the operating system
will abort the installation. Take the FingerTec OFIS Scanner’s driver for instance;
Windows 8 will not install the driver as it is not digitally signed. Even when
you update the driver, Windows 8 will not let you complete the installation.
However, we have a solution to this problem. To fix this
problem:
1.
From the Start Screen, click Settings.
2.
Click Change PC Settings.
3.
Click General.
4.
Scroll down and look for Advance startup. Click
Restart Now.
5.
After the restart, you are required to choose an
option. Click Troubleshoot.
6.
Click Advance Options and click Startup
Settings.
7.
At the Startup Settings, click Restart.
8.
In the next menu, press F7 to disable driver
signature enforcement.
9.
Go to Device Manager and update the OFIS-Y
Fingerprint Reader’s driver.
10. This
time around, Windows 8 will prompt a security window to reconfirm the
installation. Click Install this driver software anyway.
11. Once
the installation has completed, you can now use the OFIS-Y with Windows 8.

ReplyDeleteI follow above steps and managed to install the driver in my Windows 8.1. Somehow, I receive an error during the scanner activation. The error is "File Access Denied". Please help me on this.
ReplyDeleteHi Hadi
DeletePlease download this file link,
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?jfvmdhv1ckjpd1s at the PC where you plug the OFIS Y. Then extract the file.
After that double click at the .exe button and click the "Click" button.
It will generate the serial number. Kindly send the serial number that you get by using the tool for us to check your product and activation key.
I have same issue for this. I can't access Mediafire due to institution's internet policy. Would you please provide the above file to another site? Thank you

Appreciate your feedback.
I followed the above steps exactly as stated. I am running Win 8.1. The only difference was the Step 3...I do not have a "General" section. I did find the setting under
ReplyDeleteUpdate and Recovery --- Recovery
But when I get step 9, I do not get the unpublished verify and shown in step 10. It just fails.
Anyone else get this?
It states

OFIS-Y Fingerprint reader
The system cannot find the file specified.
