UserConsentVerifierAvailability enum definitions for Windows 10

66 Views Asked by At

What is the difference between DeviceNotPresent and NotConfiguredForUser properties of UserConsentVerifierAvailability enumeration?

MSDN documentation says "There is no biometric verifier device available" and "A biometric verifier device is not configured for this user", respectively.

From what I understand, DeviceNotPresent is when a pin or Hello hasn't been set up for the user, but what then is NotConfiguredForUser?

The documentation says, the DeviceNotPresent is when the machine don't have any biometric authentication capable peripheral device (iris scanner or fingerprint scanner). The value is NotConfiguredForUser when the machine have a capable device, but the user haven't configured the Windows Hello yet.
