I have Windows 8.1 right now and it works for unlocking my laptop when it is asleep and when it is starting up at the welcome screen.

I'm using it with Windows 8.1. It'll work but it will tell you it needs to download some software i.e. drivers from Microsoft first.

I have not used it with Windows 8.1.I am using it with Windows 7 and it works perfect.

by "unlock" do you mean accessing the profiles in the esc? you need either a field program card or a usb link cable to do that.

I bought this and it works as promised on my Windows 7 computer. I do not know how it will work on Windows 8.1.I sent a question about my application to the seller and they did respond.

Legally/realistically no. Once you authenticate windows 8.1 on one computer it will check that you uninstalled it before it lets you authenticate it on another.

Can verify that it works on Windows 8.1 Pro. So it should work on 8.1, as the specs state no additional drivers are needed.

I don't know what you mean about "unlocking" it. I do know that after using mine for about a year, it told me that my password was incorrect (it wasn't) and I've never been able to get into it again. I emailed the company several times and even called them and left messages and I never heard anything. I sure do miss all those passwords I spend hours putting into the thing. I wouldn't advise anybody to buy one.

I have Windows 8.1, and it works properly (I don't have the touch screen, though, so I'm not sure how that would respond).

I use only Win7, so I cannot vouch for Win8.1...but all the keys below the top row of special function keys will certainly work as usual. The F1-F12 keys should work as usual (according to the application being run) but the alternate functions of those keys (e.g. Search, eMail, Volume, play, stop, rewind, etc) will likely not work unless the proper driver is installed. I do not know if a driver for Win8.1 is available.

Thre is a much simplier way to do it. There is a program called UNLOCKER. Its a free download, best place to get it is CNET downloads. It will monitor your system or can put in the right click menu when accessing files. It will 'unlock' whatever issue you are having. You can even move files with it to different locations or if you are trying to delete files, it will do it too. Great peice of software and I highly recommend.

Yes this item works outside of Windows 8.1 and will work for the application you asked about.

The one I have is great for Windows 8. It solved all the fingerprint problems.

I have not tried it on 8.1 but it did work on Win 8 so it seems likely that it would. John

Worked fine for windows 7 and all my devices I have work on 8.1. I'm going to assume it works.

Yes it did work in Windows 7 and even in windows 8 with some problems but when they moved to 8.1 it CRASED!

I have it on my windows 8 I don't know about 8.1 but I would think it would work with it as well.
