The Fingerprint Unlock Module Version 1.3.0 for PC is a software component developed by Andrei Rusu (also known as Andrei Mircius) that serves as the Windows counterpart to the Remote Fingerprint Unlock Android application. This module acts as a "Credential Provider," allowing users to remotely and securely unlock their Windows 10, 8, or 7 computers using the fingerprint sensor on their Android smartphones. Core Functionality and Features
The primary purpose of Version 1.3.0 is to bridge the gap between a PC’s login screen and a mobile device's biometric hardware.
Remote Authentication: Users can unlock their PC via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth by scanning their fingerprint on their phone.
Bluetooth Support: Version 1.3.0 introduced critical Bluetooth capabilities, allowing for pairing and unlocking without requiring both devices to be on the same Wi-Fi network.
Multi-Account Support: The module supports local, Microsoft, and Domain accounts (though domain support is optimized for Windows 8 and above).
Privacy and Security: The system uses 256-bit AES encryption for communication. Fingerprint templates are stored only on the Android device's hardware, and no raw biometric data is transmitted to the PC. Version 1.3.0 Specifications & Updates Fingerprint Unlock Module Version 1.3.0 Pc

Always configure a fallback PIN or password. If your finger is injured or the sensor fails, you will not be locked out of your machine.
Before installing, please ensure your system meets the following minimum requirements:
Early fingerprint modules required you to swipe your finger in a specific direction. Version 1.3.0 features a touch-based sensor that recognizes your fingerprint from any orientation. Whether you place your finger upside down or at a 45-degree angle, the module’s pattern-matching algorithm reconstructs the minutiae points in real-time.
