Default Fingerprint reader - how to edit the list?


The only way to delete an account is to go to the web page for which it was
registered, click on the hand button in the title bar and then click Delete.
But what to do if the web page changes or is no longer existing? Seems that
you are stuck with that account forever. Anyone knows of a workaround?

On mine, when I edit it as you describe (click on hand on the web page and
touch your finger ) it gives a "Change" option (in addition to Add and
Remove). Selecting that allows you to change the login options.

Indeed it does, but only when you are on the page in question. My problem is
that some of these pages (like my bank's) change frequently. For the
password manager then it is a new page, therefore no hand button. The
original page doesn't exist any more, so I have to create a new account.
Can't re-use the name either, so the original account stays there forever.
As I said, my bank changes the page setup frequently, so now I have bank1,
bank2, bank3, bank4...lined up on the menu, and only the last one is
meaningful.

The site information is contained in C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Application
Data\DigitalPersona\OTS
the shortcut.inf contains the site information, match that up with the dpm file in the templates
folder. What I do is delete the dpm file and delete the shortcut info from the inf and they
nolonger appear.
