It's built solid and it feels like it will reliable for years to come. It's also a lot easier to use a fingerprint reader than typing in passwords, or using a password manager. Review: Did not work for me. - This review is for the Verifi P5100 Premium Metal USB Fingerprint Reader for Windows 10. I normally don't write reviews because you get some good and some bad products. No company can be perfect. However I felt impelled to write a review for this product because of the price compared to other fingerprint readers. I can't really rate this product because I never got it to work before sending it back. I purchased this product based on other reviews but mostly on the claims on the item page. It claims to work well and fast, easy install. I tried installing this item on three different computers, Windows 7, Windows 10, and windows 11. I got the same errors on all 3 computers: Your device is having trouble recognizing you. Make sure your sensor is clean. Sorry, something went wrong. Close Windows Hello, and try going through the setup again. Move your finger slightly lower. Move your finger slightly higher. Move your finger slightly to the left. Identical on all computers and operating systems. I am going to need over 100 of these for computer protection and if it is this hard to install on one computer I don't have the time to waste on 100+ computers. This item might work well for some but if it is that sensitive it won't work for my purpose anyway. ## Features - SEAMLESS ENTRY WITH FINGERPRINT: The Verifi P5100 fingerprint sensor offers fast access and integrates with smart home systems for supported security and convenience. - EASY INSTALLATION & AUTO-LOCK: Quickly set up the Verifi P5100, featuring an auto-lock function for peace of mind and reliable security in apartments or offices. - VERSATILE CONNECTIVITY OPTIONS: Enjoy USB Type A and Bluetooth app connectivity for managing your biometric safe settings remotely and integrating with PCs. - DURABLE & STYLISH DESIGN: The Verifi P5100 features a sleek black and silver finish, complementing any decor while providing robust security for your property. - FLEXIBLE ACCESS METHODS: With keycard compatibility and fingerprint transfer capability, the Verifi P5100 offers versatile access solutions for guests and family members. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00AAENMWO | | Best Sellers Rank | #214 in Security & Surveillance Biometrics | | Brand | Verifi Smart.Safe. | | Brand Name | Verifi Smart.Safe. | | Cable Type | USB | | Color | Black/Silver | | Compatible Devices | PC | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Connector Gender | Male-to-Male | | Connector Type | USB Type A | | Customer Reviews | 3.6 out of 5 stars 228 Reviews | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Item Shape | Flat | | Item Weight | 3.6 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Zvetco Biometrics | | Model | P5100 | | Model Name | Verifi P5100 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pins | 4 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Fingerprint Transfer | | Part Number | P5100-BLK-VER | | Recommended Uses For Product | Fingerprint | | Special Feature | Fingerprint Transfer | | Specification Met | USB-IF | | UPC | 854268001015 786714937688 798167837767 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Verifi Smart.Safe. - **Cable Type:** USB - **Compatible Devices:** PC - **Connector Type:** USB Type A - **Special Feature:** Fingerprint Transfer ## Images ![Used Verifi P5100 Biometric Fingerprint Sensor, USB Connectivity, Compatible with Windows Hello, Black/Silver - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61g4enI4H+L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Has anyone got this to work with Windows 10? If so, how?** A: I have gotten it to work, but currently it has an issue if my system is resuming from a sleep state. Go through the install procedure to set up the drivers. You should be able to get it working with LastPass or one of the other password managers. Once that is working, to set it up to work with Win 10, bring up the Start menu. I believe Settings will be third from the bottom, choose "Settings". When the settings window comes up, type "fingerprint" in the search box in the upper right. Then choose the "Set up fingerprint sign-in" item. This will bring up the accounts page, choose the "Sign-in Options" item if not already selected. To set up a fingerprint for WIndows log-in, first choose the item to setup a pin. (Yeah... I know you don't care about setting up a pin... but unless you do, Microsoft in their infinite wisdom doesn't give you the option of setting up fingerprint login.) After that, then you should be able to set up fingerprint log in, below where you setup the pin. **Q: Will it work with a chromebook?** A: Don't waste your money, sorry. **Q: Will this read a finger regardless of which way the finger is oriented?** A: The P5100 reader will read your enrolled fingerprints within about 45 degrees of its original enrollment orientation. **Q: Is there an SDK for this reader, or does it only work with proprietary software?** A: I am not sure. It comes with a mini CD with the software you need. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid Performance *by F***O on December 24, 2025* I've really liked this product.

Included drivers wouldn't install, couldn't detect "Windows Biometric Framework". However Windows detected and installed the device on insertion (Driver install still no go even after Windows detection, tried web site drivers too). Windows Hello detected the reader and allowed me to enroll finger prints. I will say the detection rate on this sensor is just OK. Took many attempts to enroll a finger (thumb too). However once enrolled it has been working well to unlock my workstation. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1145354-used-verifi-p5100-biometric-fingerprint-sensor-usb-connectivity-compatible-windows](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1145354-used-verifi-p5100-biometric-fingerprint-sensor-usb-connectivity-compatible-windows) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-11*
