IMPORTANT NOTES:
- This updated software is not required if you have already installed the patch on your computer. However, if you wish to install fingerprint authentication software on a new computer, you will need to install this updated version.

However, the files in such folders are properly encrypted, and such folders will be recognized as encrypted again if you encrypt such folders after the updated software is installed.
- A user must have administrative rights to install this update.
