hi potentilla,

windows hello more personal way sign in or touch , requires front-facing camera. if laptop open , don't want camera or windows hello try find face, can close laptop (making camera face keyboard) put in standby mode , stop scanning. continue using laptop, can open again , use windows hello log in.

let know if have other questions.
