This is overkill. If your computer uses a fingerprint scanner to log in, use the ID it established at that time. It is available with appropriate operating system calls. Then the trick is, don't leave the computer logged in when you aren't there. Even the U.S. Navy allows that kind of operation.

This DOES presume that you have established an account for yourself that the computer COULD recognize if you offered the fingerprint.

Here is a link to how to set up your Windows for fingerprint verification. If Windows can do it, there is a module somewhere that you could use, but it is a LOT easier to just trust that your login was validated that way and use the information.

Hi Paul, I assume the finger print reader is built in to the laptop?

But as always, it's like playing a guessing game....

Yes, I did as well, but an external reader would work just as well I expect?

When I worked for Honeywell Bull back in the 80s they were developing fingerprint readers for entry.
Someone asked 'What happens if the person just has their finger chopped off, anyone could use it?'
The reply was 'Well yes, but there is also a thermal sensor, to make sure the finger is attached'

Ha, so you'll need a cup of tea to dunk the finger in to warm it up!

Probably just as easy to enclose it in your fist and get it to your body temp?

The biggest problem with fingerprint scanners actually happened to me in my last few years with the the Navy. I went for a new Computer Access Card (lovingly referred to as a CAC, rhymes with quack). They said, "Nope, you aren't you." After a moment of wondering whether I'd just slept through an "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" moment, they told me what had really happened. As I aged, my skin became less taut and eventually my fingers wrinkled a bit. But the reference sample had been taken when I was younger and had tighter skin. The mechanical scanner saw lines (new wrinkles) that weren't in the original sample. Fortunately, their fingerprint person was well aware of the phenomenon, so did a "side-by-side" followed by an overlay. He said, "Yep. You are you." He had to update the record to show that my prints were altered by age because the scanner was sensitive enough to see the wrinkles and dumb enough to not know them for what they were.

I just bookmarked this post, so I can use it as an excuse in the future.
