EDITS: 18 May 2013 — updated version of HP SimplePass
Edits 24-Oct-2016 — updated Series 6 HP SimplePass link
- Shown below is the last update for any version 6.x of AuthenTec HP SimplePass.
- Series 6 HP SimplePass, that is, any version 6.x (or earlier) of HP SimplePass does not work on the latest Windows 10 builds. Please switch to the latest Series 8 HP SimplePass.
About Series 8 HP SimplePass:
- Series 8 HP SimplePass is NOT an update to the older AuthenTec versions. Series 8 HP SimplePass is written and provided by a different company (Softex) — different encryption, different program. There is no conversion available between the two programs — it is necessary to create a new Webcard (Vault) database for your websites / passwords.
